Collecting Emerging Photography Panel

I've been invited to participate in a moderated panel discussion on collecting emerging photography. The details of where and when are below. I think it could be a lively event. One of the main things to wrestle with is the definition of the word "emerging" in the context of collecting. Is it an economic term? Is it defined by youth? Gallery representation? I think the term is understood in many different ways by many different people. I hope some of that will come to the fore in our discussions. Please come if you're free, and feel free to post comments after the event.

The Camera Club of New York will present a panel discussion about collecting contemporary photography (emphasis on emerging) on Tuesday, March 3, 8-10pm, at the School of Visual Arts Amphitheater, 209 E. 23^rd St., 3^rd Floor.
