Join us at ICP for a conversation between Ari Marcopoulos, Daniel Arnold, Aaron Stern and ICP Creative Director David Campany on the occasion of HARD COPY NEW YORK, curated by Campany and Stern and featuring work by Marcopoulos and Arnold.*Speakers are subject to change without notice. About the ExhibitionThe International Center of Photography presents HARD COPY NEW YORK, an expanded iteration of Aaron Stern’s ongoing project exploring the contemporary use of the photocopied image. Following previous iterations, including a 2025 show in Los Angeles, the group exhibition uses the visual language of the copy machine to evoke nostalgia for a time of more deliberate picture making.In our current moment when digital images proliferate, fewer physical copies of images are made or exhibited. Through this show, curators David Campany and Aaron Stern aim to reassert photography's inherent power: its ability to offer a profound, democratic, and tangible experience.Ryan McGinley, Falling (Light Leak), 2013/2025.

Join us at ICP for Camera South Asia: Between Origins and Elsewhere, an all-day symposium. Marking the bicentennial of photography, Camera South Asia revisits the question of origins by treating it as both spatial and temporal. Rather than returning to stories of invention or singular beginnings, the symposium turns to movement—circulation, transit, displacement, and dissonance—as a constitutive force in the life of images. We take New York as our point of reference—a city shaped by diasporic aspiration and uneven arrival—and approach South Asia not as a fixed geography, but as a field marked by itineraries of migration. Recent political shifts in Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka, and ongoing political struggles in India, Pakistan, and Iran underscore the urgency of thinking creatively between ideas of identity, history, and change. Camera South Asia III thus engages hybridity and difference not as inherited identities, but as practices shaped through encounter and return. Across historical archives and speculative futures, the artists, scholars, and curators assembled in this edition attend to mobility in its uneven forms—coerced and chosen, precarious and enabling—pointing toward futures that are neither singular nor settled, but continually unfolding in plural elsewheres. This program is being offered both in person at ICP, located on NYC's Lower East Side, and online. Current ICP students and faculty of the One-Year Certificate programs are automatically enrolled and invited to attend all lectures. SCHEDULE Saturday, April 11 Welcome Remarks David Campany, ICP Creative Director, Rahaab Allana (Co-chair), Debashree Mukherjee (Co-chair).10:30 AM Session I.

Displacement Imaging: Tracing Unseen Cartographies Every displacement leaves its mark—not just as a shadow of nostalgia for a lost homeland, but as an act of liberation, a reimagining of identity and belonging. As artist and scholar Jyoti Mistry observes, these traces are not passive remnants but living forces, shaping how we navigate memory, place, and the stories we tell about ourselves. This session turns to severance and dissonance as critical lenses, probing how the roots of belonging are both articulated and redefined. In a world where truth flickers between map and mirage, we interrogate the processes, histories, and politics of image-making—its public life, its power to challenge or entrench narratives of authority and erasure. Our speakers excavate the present. Prita Meier traces how colonial and maritime encounters forged identities and aspirations, uncovering the tangled exchanges between South Asia and Africa—where memory, displacement, and representation collide. Azadeh Akhlaghi reveals how performance and photography resurrect the unresolved past, etching history and conscience into forms that demand reckoning. Sumathi Ramaswamy explores how a 1914 photograph of M.K. Gandhi—transforming from an English gentleman while in South Africa into the guise of an indentured Indian labourer—marked a pivotal shift in his activism that continues to be circulated in the present. Together, they ask: How might new visions for South Asia emerge from rupture and return, laying bare what is lost—and found—in the global flow of images? Session II. Itinerant Media This panel brings together artistic and scholarly practices that theorize migration and labor through mobility as a relational and generative condition. Moving beyond narratives of displacement, the panel examines how transit produces provisional commons, material infrastructures, and speculative temporalities. Saloni Mathur traces the figure of baggage across modern and contemporary art, and shows how the carrying of one’s material possessions registers the labor, racialization, and uneven economies embedded in migrant movement. Yaminay Chaudhri reads Karachi’s Seaview beach as an in-between place, a space between land and sea, and a place for itinerants to find a tentative home. Where the suitcase embodies a desire for movement and border-crossing, the beach embodies the border itself. Both papers use the materiality of their central objects–itinerant media–to reflect on the possibilities of the image itself as an ‘unstable boundary condition.’ Presented by: Co-organizers: Supported by: Image credit: Image credit: K.L.
