"This publication has been made possible by the MFA Photography, Video and Related Media department of the School of Visual Arts, NY through a generous grant from the Crossed Purposes Foundation, a 501 c (3) tax exempt organization. Marking its 30th anniversary, the MFA Photo/Video Department at SVA founded by Charles H. Traub, has led the field in the expansion of the lens and screen arts and its intellectual, critical, and practical support of new technologies.
The publication, Seeing, Naming, Knowing, by Nora N. Khan marks the first annual award for critical writing to encourage new perspectives on photography and its extended practice. The author's topic was nominated by a distinguished international group of fourteen writers, curators, and educators, and the author was given twelve months to produce her essay."--from publication notes
