What can you expect from a PSfA portfolio?
Each portfolio will be shipped to your institution and can be used for in-class study for up to two weeks. The portfolio will include a selection of photographic prints and various educational guides, including reading lists, writing prompts, and suggested classroom discussion questions. Our goal is to support student engagement through in-person interaction with prints over an extended period of time. Students will study the photographer’s methods, material use, and conceptual reasoning, and develop a better understanding and greater appreciation of the photographic medium.
Once the in-class print viewing and exercises are complete, students will learn the nuances of creating condition reports and how to pack fine art prints, allowing the portfolio to ship safely to the next school.
