To support the 2011 international symposium “Reframing the New Topographics in Europe” at the Nederlands FotoMuseum (Rotterdam). Organized through Columbia College Chicago, the symposium resituates the influences and links between the landmark 1975 George Eastman House exhibition New Topographics: Photographs of a Man-Altered Landscape and European photography and intellectual currents of the 1960s and 1970s. The symposium coincides with the opening of a new version of the exhibition New Topographics, organized by the Center for Creative Photography at the University of Arizona (Tucson, Arizona), for which the Terra Foundation funded the international tour.
