Savannah photography center opens Mark Cáceres exhibition

The Savannah Center for Photography opened an exhibition of photographs by Mark Cáceres on Oct. 2, with an artist talk scheduled later in the month.

“There are names for what binds us” features black-and-white gelatin silver prints exploring injury, resilience, intimacy and mortality. The exhibition will remain on view through Jan. 2.
Cáceres will travel from Atlanta for an artist talk at 6 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 22, at the center. The talk is free and open to the public.

The exhibition is being presented in conjunction with Savannah Loves Photo, an initiative focused on photography as an art form.
Cáceres was born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and settled in the United States at an early age. He became interested in photography while studying anthropology as an undergraduate at Emory University and later earned a Master of Fine Arts degree from the University of Hartford’s International Limited-Residency program.

His studies and experience as a migrant have influenced his interest in cultures in the United States and abroad. His photography explores questions of identity and belief and connections among people and cultures.

Cáceres’ work has been exhibited in the United States and Europe and has appeared in Oxford American, HuffPost, Lenscratch, Reading the Pictures and South x Southeast Photo Magazine. He is represented by Spalding Nix Fine Art in Atlanta, where he lives with his wife.

Prints from “There are names for what binds us” will be available for purchase through the Savannah Center for Photography.
The Savannah Center for Photography is a nonprofit organization that operates a community darkroom and workshop space and presents rotating gallery exhibitions. The organization also provides photography education and resources for photographers at various experience levels.
