On the show I talk with photographer Matthew Leifheit. Matthew approaches photography as both an artist and a curator. In addition to his own work he has published Matte Magazine, a journal for new ideas in photography, since 2010. Matthew also spent three years serving as the photo editor of Vice, in addition to writing for other platforms including Time and Aperture. In 2017 Leifheit graduated with an MFA from Yale where his thesis focused on a set of rejected photographs he originally took on assignment for the Yale Daily News. His work is held by ICP, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and the MoMa Library among others. I met Matthew at his home one day in Brooklyn, and you can see the portrait we did on Instagram @william.jess.laird as well as at www.williamjesslaird.com/imageculture You can see more of Matt’s work at www.matthewleifheit.com and you can find Matte Magazine at MoMa PS1, Printed Matter, and ICP.
