Introduction

Welcome to "Researching a Photography Project," a workshop for ICP Students that will be held on October 20-21, 2012.

This blog is an attempt to have hyperlinked notes and resources for the students to refer to after the intensive weekend tour, as well as provide the instructor with a place to drop all of the content that needs to be added before, during and even after the class.

The photograph, above, is a view of one wall of books in the home office of the late Cornell Capa, ICP's founder, and an exemplar of the practice this class hopes to foster - feeding the brain of the photographer great resources and thereby aiding the value and meaning of the work they do.
