The fourth Ryerson Image Centre Symposium highlights the most current research in the history of photography, bringing emerging scholars from universities worldwide to speak about their areas of study, their methods and their findings. This rising group of young photo-historians will engage in dialogue with prominent academics, revealing how contemporary historical inquiry sits within—and departs from—established traditions. The symposium is organized by the Ryerson Image Centre with support from Ryerson University’s School of Image Arts.
