On Thursday 6 March, photographer Wayne Barrar will discuss his work in the National Library exhibition 'Manapouri: Art, Power, Protest' within the context of his ongoing investigation of the human-modified landscape. He will also consider the role of photography in articulating land-use issues.
Wayne Barrar is one of four contemporary New Zealand photographers in this exhibition. His documentation of the spaces of the Manapouri power station works very differently from that of earlier photographers, who romanticised Lake Manapouri as distant, splendid and untouched by development. But unlike the photographers that documented the construction of the power station 40 years ago, Barrar stops well short of suggesting any kind of achievement of industry over nature.
Venue: National Library Gallery, Molesworth Street, Wellington, 12.10pm
