WorldView: Cultural Intersections with Image and Identity

Every thinking mind needs a world view. This half-day seminar builds on the cross-cultural understandings and perspectives that engage and influence many contemporary artists. This year, in collaboration with Ohio State, we will explore identity, social justice, and how images affect our understanding of race and civil rights. Our featured events in WorldView include the two exhibitions The Long March: Civil Rights, Cartoons, & Comics, presented by the Billy Ireland Cartoon Library & Museum and Remembering the Act: Archival Reflections on Civil Rights in 1964, presented by Ohio State’s Thompson Library Gallery, as well as the extraordinary documentary by Thomas Allen Harris Through a Lens Darkly: Black Photographers and the Emergence of a People.
