About Visual Studies Workshop
Visual Studies Workshop nurtures experimental and expansive approaches to photography and media arts, and builds community among artists and the public through exhibitions, workshops, publications and residencies. VSW was founded in 1969 in Rochester, New York by artist and curator Nathan Lyons (1930–2016). Rooted in Lyons’ progressive vision of the “workshop idea,” VSW became one of the earliest independent, not-for-profit, artist-run spaces in the country.

@Nilson - Thanks for taking the time out to show me VSW’s digital transfer lab and teach me more about the art of preserving analog media types. I look forward to VSW's continued success !
