Gallery Conversation: Ben Shahn’s New York Wednesday
In conjunction with the exhibition Ben Shahn’s New York: The Photography of Modern Times
Laura Katzman, Assistant Professor of Art History and Director of Museum Studies, Randolph-Macon Woman’s College, will focus on the New York neighborhoods where Shahn photographed during the 1930s, highlighting the ways he moved through the city with his small camera to document Manhattan’s diverse populations and to make studies for future work in other media.
