On Political Photography: Documenting Racial Inequality in the US

Organized by Grey Art Museum, NYU

Original program date: November 2, 2022

NYU Professor Lauren Walsh, author of Through the Lens: The Pandemic and Black Lives Matter, and Professor Vanessa Charlot, an award-winning photographer and filmmaker at the University of Mississippi whose work focuses on the intersectionality of race, politics, culture and sexual/gender expression, have a conversation on the power of political photography in the contemporary moment. Inspired in part by photos on view at the Grey Art Gallery by Danny Lyon, an instrumental photographer during the American Civil Rights movement of the 1960s. Recorded from a live event on Nov. 2, 2022, hosted by the Grey Art Gallery (NYU) in conjunction with the exhibition Mostly New: Selections from the NYU Art Collection.
