Anna Van Lenten

Anna Van Lenten curates the The Half King Photo Series in Manhattan at The Half King, 505 West 23 Street, and Director of the LightField Festival.
The photography that the Series champions deepens and clarifies issues of our time and news stories we race through day to day. Projects in the Series highlight the strange and compelling, the overlooked and underreported. To illuminate context, text, video, or audio is often pulled in as part of our presentation.
The Series bi-monthly exhibit openings and photo book launches are live events centered around a print exhibit or photo project. Driven by conversation, they are a chance for audience and photographer to engage with each other about the layered ideas in the photographer's work. Such face-to-face connection invites fresh, un-canned insight about the photography at hand. The intelligence, spontaneity, and focus Half King audiences bring are vital to our screen-centered lives.
