William Wegman in conversation with Andrew Lampert  

Wegman may be best known for his Weimaraners—which have flexed their manicured paws from art galleries to the set of Saturday Night Live and Sesame Street–but dogs are only part of the artist’s oeuvre. In Writing by Artist, his latest book–and accompanying show–we get a glimpse into his playful and often impish texts, including imagined restaurant reviews, musings on ancient footwear, reworked greeting cards, and fictional advertisements for real life products, among other things. For this appearance at Deep Water Literary Fest, Wegman talks about his life and work with Andrew Lambert, editor of Writing by Artist.
