Event Pick: The Power of Pleasure: Decoding the Art of Visual Seduction with Matthew Rolston

This professional development benefit webinar by legendary photographer Matthew Rolston takes the idea of pleasure very seriously indeed, as this lion of fashion and celebrity photography deconstructs the strategic elements of “visual seduction.” Within the historical context of how beauty and luxury brands communicate, Rolston will impart insight into the analytical framework of how beauty operates on our consciousness, with the goal of making you a better photographer/artist/designer/maker — and a more savvy viewer. Los Angeles Center of Photography, Saturday, August 1, 10-11:30am; $45 / members $35 (proceeds benefit the LACP); lacphoto.org.
