Hi Marilyn,
I was attended in such a course in the open
university here.
This course was led by Michal Heiman - a famous
Israeli photography artist.
The course name was: "Thinkings About Photography"
which is the name of a Roland Barthes's book ( La Chambre Claire )
I don't know LensWork magazines
but according to a short glimpse in the internet, this book can be
"digested" easily.
In the first lesson Michal asked us to bring some
photos we photographed that "best match us"
She tried to encourage each participant to go his
own way.

Subject: classes?
Hi All,
I've been considering offering a second class in
photography where I instruct a beginning photographers' class. I'd
like to instruct a course on being a photographer. Not a
business oriented class, or an equipment oriented class, but a class about
what goes into the thinking process of being a photographer.
The closest example I can give is the type of
material used in the LensWork magazines and commentaries. Have
any of you attended such a class? Taught such a class? Heard
of such a class?
If you have attended such a course, what was your
impression of it? What did it offer?
I'd really like to hear your thoughts and
suggestions about my offering something like I've described.
Thank you in advance.
Marilyn
