Turning Time: Vera Lutter

Photographing internationally Vera Lutter challenges the way we see the world, capturing cities, buildings and iconic monuments in such a way that they become unfamiliar and otherworldly. Join Vera Lutter and Martin Barnes as they discuss Lutter’s oeuvre which examines light, time, and movement. Delve into Lutter’s use of a room-sized camera obscura, or pinhole camera, to capture architecture, urban landscapes and industrial sites, and understand her decision to retain the negative image and refrain from multiplication or reproduction.
