对于我们中的许多人来说，虽然拍照、分享和浏览照片已经成了日常生活中的习惯，但我们与图像的频繁接触并未培养我们在视觉表达上的素养。

这个课程的目的在于通过介绍影响摄影作品的创意、手段与技术，讨论观看照片与真正理解照片之间距离的问题。在这个课程里，你将近距离观看纽约现代艺术博物馆收藏的照片，聆听从不同角度对照片的解读，以及摄影在将近180年历史中被使用的方式：作为艺术表现的途径、作为科学和探索的工具、作为纪实文献的媒介、作为讲述故事和记录历史的手段，以及作为日益视觉化的文化中一种交流和批评的模式。学习目标训练技巧，以便更好地检视和理解照片与摄影图像之间的不同。发现语境如何影响摄影图像的制作、传播和接收。学习摄影中各种不同模式的艺术和技术试验和创新。探讨摄影在日益视觉化的文化中所发挥的作用

“摄影是一种每个人都认为自己在讲的外国语言。” -- Philip-Lorca di Corcia
