ARTIST LOOKS AT PHOTOGRAPHY THROUGH A MODERN LENS

SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. - What’s next? The art of photography changes as quickly as the big hand on a clock.

Whether it’s the material, the lighting, production tools or the interpretation, there’s no doubt the boundary of traditional photography is continuously tested and stretched by the artists behind the lens.

Guest lecturer Lisa Tucker will speak on the “New Directions in Contemporary Photography” at Cal State San Bernardino’s Robert V. Fullerton Art Museum on Wednesday, Nov. 5, from 5-6:30 p.m.
