Image essay on 'Training for a Better World'. By Michael Szpakowski. "On 28th October 2011 I travelled to Sète in the South of France to see and to review Annie Abrahams' show Training for a Better World. About half way through the evening I started both photographing and sketching as aides-memoire for my reviews but I soon began to enjoy the feeling of responding to the work for its own sake and I began to think about about presenting the drawings and photographs (plus some drawings made from the photos two days later, as well as a couple of manipulated photos) as a kind of photo-essay/derivative work." http://www.furtherfield.org/features/reviews/image-essay-training-better-world Global Positioning: An Interview with Ricardo Dominguez.
