Silver Eye, contemporary photography, and community

Silver Eye Center for Photography has supported photographers and artists for forty years, a resource for Pittsburgh artists that has also brought national and international artists to the city. Leo Hsu, Executive Director of Silver Eye, will discuss Silver Eye’s current programs of collaborating with emerging artists, exhibiting contemporary photography, and creating community around art and art-making, and the values and concerns that shape Silver Eye’s programs as the ways that we think about photography continue to change.
