Naomi Rosenblum was one of the leading photography historians of her generation and the author of A World History of Photography and A History of Women Photographers. The 2025-2026 Naomi Rosenblum ICP Talks Photographer Lecture Series is made possible through generous support from the Rosenblum Family. About the SpeakersRoe Ethridge (b. 1969, Miami) lives and works in New York and is widely regarded as a leading figure in contemporary conceptual photography. Working fluidly between commercial and art contexts, Ethridge merges imagery drawn from fashion, advertising, and daily life with art-historical genres, using the real to suggest or disrupt the ideal. His photographs explore the increasingly porous boundary between the generic and the personal, and the way images gain new meaning through sequencing, recombination, and reuse. Ethridge has published more than fifteen books, including American Polychronic (MACK, 2022), Neighbors (MACK, 2016), Sacrifice Your Body (MACK, 2014), Le Luxe (MACK, 2011), and Rockaway, NY (SteidlMACK, 2007). His commercial collaborations include major ongoing projects with Calvin Klein, Chanel, and Louis Vuitton. His work has been exhibited widely in the United States and internationally. Significant solo presentations include Momentum 4, Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston (2005); Charles Riva Collection, Brussels (2012); Le Consortium, Dijon, and M Museum Leuven (2012–13); and a major mid-career survey, Nearest Neighbor, at the Contemporary Arts Center, Cincinnati, for the 2016 FotoFocus Biennial. Ethridge was included in New Photography 2010 at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, and in the Whitney Biennial (2008). He was shortlisted for the Deutsche Börse Photography Prize in 2011. Ethridge’s work is held in major public collections, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York; the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston; the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; and Tate, London. Vince Aletti is a writer and curator based in New York City. His writings on music and photography have been published widely. Between 1973 and 1978 Aletti wrote a highly prescient weekly column on the emerging disco scene for Record World magazine, and between 1987 and 2005 he was the art editor and photography critic for The Village Voice. His writings have also appeared in The New Yorker, Artforum, and Vogue Italia, among many other publications. His book Issues: A History of Photography in Fashion Magazines was published by Phaidon in 2019. The Drawer was published by Self Publish, Be Happy in September 2022 and went on to win the 2023 Aperture/Paris Photo Photobook of the Year award. An exhibition at White Columns inspired by The Drawer in 2024 was Aletti’s fifth collaboration with the gallery, following on from his 2008 exhibition Male: Work from the Collection of Vince Aletti; the 2014 exhibition of Robert Kitchen’s work, and the 2019 exhibition of Ed Baynard’s work (both curated by Aletti); and the 2008 White Columns publication of Aletti’s collected writings on disco, Disco File, which was subsequently republished in an expanded edition by DJ History/D.A.P.

ICP, Ward Gallery and The Road to Nowhere present: A Lens on Diaspora – a photography salon focused on image-makers from the diaspora. The event centers stories of identity, belonging, migration, home, and cultural hybridity, exploring how these experiences shape visual practice.Presenting lens-based work from four diaspora artists, this salon reflects on communities across borders, inherited histories, hybrid identities, and the idea of home as something remembered, imagined, or constantly renegotiated.The salon creates space for artists to share personal and collective narratives that challenge fixed notions of place and nationality, and to consider photography and filmmaking as a tool for preserving memory, questioning power, and articulating the diasporic experience as a lived, emotional and political condition.Following the artist presentations, Ward and The Road to Nowhere invites audience members to engage in a round table style discussion around visualizing home and memory.Tickets to attend the program are $5 and do not include admission to the ICP Galleries. About The Road to NowhereThe Road to Nowhere is a print magazine and digital platform sharing stories from the diaspora. Founded by Dalia Al-Dujaili in 2020, TRTN has published three print volumes covering photography, film, essays, interviews, creative writing, art and other media. TRTN has worked with The Barbican, The TATE, The Photographer’s Gallery, Zaha Hadid Foundation, Refuge Worldwide and many more cultural institutions. The aim of The Road to Nowhere is to celebrate the contribution of migration in culture and the arts. Volume 4 is forthcoming in 2026. About Ward GalleryWard is a New York–based independent gallery and curatorial project founded in 2024 by Saam Niami and Gabrielle Richardson.

Ward’s mission is to highlight young artists engaged in critical investigations of society through rigorous practice and aesthetic brilliance. Project-based and community-oriented, Ward has attracted both grassroots audiences and institutional recognition.

About the Speakers Emily May Jampel is a filmmaker born and raised in Honolulu and based in Brooklyn. Her films have screened at festivals around the world, including the Palm Springs International Film Festival, Aspen ShortsFest, Champs-Élysées Film Festival, Hawaiʻi International Film Festival, and NewFest. Her short film Lucky Fish became a viral hit on TikTok after premiering on NOWNESS Asia. Emily previously worked as a Development Executive at the Academy Award-Nominated and Peabody Award-Winning production company The Department of Motion Pictures (Beasts of the Southern Wild, Monsters & Men, 32 Sounds, Gasoline Rainbow), was an associate producer on the podcast series Operator and a creative consultant on Constance Tsang’s debut narrative feature Blue Sun Palace, which premiered at Cannes Critics’ Week 2024 (Winner, French Touch Prize of the Jury) and was nominated for four Independent Spirit Awards. Emily has curated short film programs for Metrograph, Allies in Arts, Brooklyn Art Haus, and NowHere Gallery, and served as a jury member at the Mint Chinese Film Festival and Oakland Drunken Film Festival. She is a 2026 New York State Council on the Arts grant recipient, a 2024-2025 participant in the UFO (Untitled Filmmaker Org) Short Film Lab, an 18-month fellowship hosted at the Brooklyn Academy of Music. She was a 2023 recipient of NewFest’s New Voices Filmmaker Grant in partnership with Netflix, and was listed on the 2024 Dazed100.Camila Falquez is a New York-based photographer of Colombian heritage, born in Mexico City and raised in Spain. Her work merges the traditions of fashion and portrait photography with a keen focus on contemporary social and gender diversity. By channeling surrealist conventions and employing a bold color palette, Falquez elevates and empowers her subjects, reimagining their presence through a unique visual language. In 2022, Falquez held her first solo exhibition in New York at Hannah Traore Gallery, titled Gods That Walk Among Us. In 2023, she was honored as the Fashion Photographer of the Year at the Latin American Fashion Awards and that same year Falquez was awarded the TD Bank and NADA Curated Spotlight award. In 2024, she was invited to be a part of The University of Tulsa convening Sovereign Futures with her performance piece with artist Luis Rincon Alba, Chant Down. Falquez’ photographs are in the permanent collections of The Museum of Modern Art, New York; The Dean Collection; The Montclair Art Museum, New Jersey; and The Perez Art Museum in Miami, Florida; The Ann and Mel Schaffer Collection, among others. Falquez’s photography explores the intersection of fabric, identity, and historical narrative. Her art reinterprets the traditional use of draped fabric in Western painting, transforming it into a contemporary symbol that challenges and redefines concepts of power and beauty. Projects such as Compañera (2023-2024), a multi-media photography installation and performance advocating for trans and non-binary rights in Colombia; Being (2018-2023), a visual manifesto that reclaims and redefines monumental ideals; all reflect her commitment to amplifying marginalized voices and celebrating diverse experiences.Wafaa Bilal is an Iraqi-born artist internationally recognized for his online performative and interactive works that provoke dialogue about international and interpersonal politics. His practice examines the tension between the cultural spaces he inhabits —physically located in the relative comfort of the United States while his consciousness remains tied to the conflict zone of Iraq. In his landmark 2007 installation Domestic Tension, Bilal spent a month in FlatFile Galleries while online participants controlled a remote-access paintball gun aimed at him. The Chicago Tribune described the work as “one of the sharpest works of political art to be seen in a long time,” naming him 2008 Artist of the Year. That same year, City Lights published Shoot an Iraqi: Art, Life and Resistance Under the Gun, which reflects on Bilal’s life and the making of Domestic Tension. Using his own body as a primary medium, Bilal continued to confront audiences’ comfort zones through projects such as and Counting... and 3rdi. His work Canto III was included in the Iraqi Pavilion at the 2015 Venice Biennale. His ongoing project 168:01 raises awareness of cultural destruction while fostering collective healing through education and audience participation. In 2025, Bilal presented Indulge Me at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago (MCA), a major exhibition further expanding his exploration of power, spectatorship, and the politics of participation. That same year, he was named Artist of the Year 2025 by Arts News. Bilal’s work is held in the permanent collections of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA); the Museum of Contemporary Photography, Chicago; and MATHAF: Arab Museum of Modern Art, Doha, among others. He holds a BFA from the University of New Mexico, an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and received an honorary PhD from DePauw University. He is currently Arts Professor at NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts.Jalan and Jibril Durimel (b. Paris 1993) lived a quasi-nomadic childhood. Born to French-Caribbean parents in Paris, they spent two years on the island of Guadeloupe before moving to Miami at age four, and then to the island of St. Maarten at twelve. It was on Saint Maarten that they became inspired by cinema and set off to Los Angeles at the age of seventeen to study film. The twin brothers, who are now based in New York City, draw inspiration from their diverse upbringing, and a passion for the evident beauties of the natural world. Through visual expressions their work aims to serve as a spectacle of cultural cross-pollination, and an inquiry into the decadence of simplicity. Still by Emily May Jampel
