You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

((Short description|American artist and scholar (1951–2013)))
'''Allan Sekula''' (January 15, 1951 – August 10, 2013) was an American photographer, writer, filmmaker, theorist and critic. From 1985 until his death in 2013, he taught at [[California Institute of the Arts]].<ref name="CalArts Obit">((cite web|title="Allan Sekula, 1951-2013"|url=http://calarts.edu/news/2013-aug-12/allan-sekula-1951-2013|website=calarts.edu|accessdate=30 October 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160817231101/https://www.calarts.edu/news/2013-aug-12/allan-sekula-1951-2013|archive-date=2016-08-17|url-status=dead))</ref> His work frequently focused on large economic systems, or "the imaginary and material geographies of the advanced capitalist world."<ref>((cite web|url=http://www.artinamericamagazine.com/news-opinion/news/2013-08-12/allan-sekula-1951-2013|title=Notice of death of artist Allan Sekula, 1951–2013|publisher=Artinamericamagazine.com|accessdate=2013-08-13|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130826040714/http://www.artinamericamagazine.com/news-opinion/news/2013-08-12/allan-sekula-1951-2013/|archive-date=2013-08-26|url-status=dead))</ref>

He received fellowships and grants from the [[John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation|Guggenheim Foundation]], [[National Endowment for the Arts]], [[Getty Research Institute]], [[German Academic Exchange Service|Deutsche Akademischer Austauschdienst]] (DAAD), Atelier Calder<ref name="artforum-obituary">((cite web|title=Allan Sekula obituary (1951–2013)|url=http://artforum.com/news|publisher=artforum.com|accessdate=13 August 2013))</ref> and was named a 2007 USA Broad Fellow.

==Life and work==
Sekula was born in 1951 in [[Erie, Pennsylvania]], of [[Polish people|Polish]] and English descent. His family moved to [[San Pedro, California]] in the early 1960s.<ref name="CalArts Obit" /> He graduated with his MFA from the University of California, San Diego, in 1974, after having obtained his BA in biology from the same institution.<ref name="sekula1"/>

Sekula's principal medium was [[photography]], which he employed to create exhibitions, books and films. His secondary medium was the written word, employing essays and other critical texts  in concert with images to create a multi-level [[critique]] of contemporary [[late capitalism]]. His works make critical contributions on questions of social reality and [[globalization]], and focus on what he described as "''the imaginary and material geographies of the advanced capitalist world''". He was a film/video-maker, frequently collaborating with film theorist [[Noël Burch]] on projects such as ''The Reagan Tapes'' (1984) (with regard to [[Ronald Reagan]]), and ''The Forgotten Space'' (2010).<ref>[http://icarusfilms.com/filmmakers/fs2.html Icarus Films website]</ref>

He served on the faculty of the Photography and Media Program at the [[California Institute of the Arts]].<ref>((cite web|title=Allan Sekula|url=http://alternativeprojections.com/data/peopleDetail.php?id=Allan%20Sekula|publisher=alternativeprojections.com|accessdate=August 13, 2013))</ref>

Sekula died on August 10, 2013, aged 62, following a long struggle with gastric-esophageal [[cancer]].<ref name="sekula1">((cite news|title=Allan Sekula, R.I.P|url=http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2013/08/12/alan-sekula-appreciation-is-the-daily-pic-by-blake-gopnik.html|newspaper=The Daily Beast|date=12 August 2013|accessdate=August 13, 2013|last1=Gopnik|first1=Blake))</ref>
