The Power and Passion to Create

An Evening with Norman Seeff

High Museum of Art – Hill Auditorium

Norman Seeff, photographer and filmmaker, discussed the results of over 35 years’ work with luminaries such as The Rolling Stones, Ray Charles, Miles Davis, Martin Scorcese, John Huston, Bob Fosse, Steve Jobs, Norman Mailer, Alicia Keys, will.i.am, Sir Francis Krick and many other Nobel winning scientists.

Below is an excerpt from the lecture, Seeff describes the methodology and objective behind his legendary “sessions”.

Through millions of feet of film and in person interviews with thousands of artists and innovators of all major creative disciplines, Seeff has explored the inner dynamics of, and documented a new paradigm for, the creative process.

In this program, Seeff showed film clips from The Sessions Project archives, revealing a process rather than goal oriented approach to creativity. This screening and a video of his photographic work included an engaging audience interaction.

Lumière was pleased to partner with the High Museum of Art, and Atlanta Celebrates Photography on this event.
