Email alumni@massart.edu.Love Pictures, a collaboration between photographer Jess T. Dugan and writer Charlotte Cotton, is centered around a series of conversations between the two focusing on core themes that inform Dugan’s practice, including gender and identity, family and politics, writing and language, the book as object, and the dynamics of the exhibition space.These initial dialogues then prompted subsequent conversations with others in Dugan’s and Cotton’s respective communities: friends, colleagues, mentors, and subjects of Dugan’s work—including Dawoud Bey, Kelli Connell, and Dorothy Moss, among others. Transcriptions of these intimate and in-depth exchanges are woven with the first comprehensive survey of Dugan’s work in book form.BIOSJESS T. DUGAN is an artist whose work explores identity and the complexities of the human condition. While their practice is centered around photography, it also includes writing, video, sound, drawing, and installation. Their work is regularly exhibited internationally and is in the permanent collections of over seventy museums.CHARLOTTE COTTON is a curator and writer who explores photography and visual culture. She is the author of key books that chart photographic practices in this century, including Photography is Magic (2015) and The Photograph as Contemporary Art (2004).RADIUS BOOKS is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization with a focus on photography and fine art book publishing. In addition to publishing, RADIUS BOOKS encourages aspiring artists through educational workshops and community events and distributes books of artistic and educational value for a wide audience. RADIUS BOOKS donates copies of every title we publish into a nationwide network of libraries and schools, with the hope and expectation that these books will reach and inspire new audiences.Photo by Chris Bauer.
