About the BookDizzy Gillespie, New York Jazz Festival, Randall’s Island Stadium, New York City, August 24-25, 1956 © Lisette Model Foundation, courtesy of Eakins Press Foundation/National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution​,​ Ella Fitzgerald, Newport Jazz Festival, Newport, Rhode Island, July 5-7, 1956 ​© Lisette Model Foundation, courtesy ​​​of Eakins Press Foundation/​​National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institution Street photographer Lisette Model spent more than 10 years documenting Louis Armstrong, Billie Holiday, Duke Ellington, Percy Heath, Miles Davis, Dizzy Gillespie and countless other luminaries of America's jazz scene. From the 1956 Newport Jazz Festival to nightclub shows and raucous afterparties in cramped apartments, Model's images are effusive and full of empathy, celebrating jazz at a time when the genre was under increasing political and cultural scrutiny.During the 1950s, the New York Photo League was investigated by the House Un-American Activities Committee for purported connections to the Communist Party. Model was interviewed by the FBI and eventually placed on its National Security Watchlist. This mounting political pressure led publishers and funders to rescind support of Model, and ultimately caused her to shelve the book dedicated to her jazz pictures, which was to feature an essay by Langston Hughes.Now, this clothbound book finally realizes Model's self-censored project, providing a fresh look at familiar faces who today signify the fight for freedom, equality and creative expression. Alongside Hughes' original essay, texts by author Audrey Sands and saxophonist Loren Schoenberg underscore the importance of this series and the revelatory insight it shines on jazz music, both onstage and off.Lisette Model (1901–83) was born in Vienna. She moved to Manhattan in 1938 and two years later Model hosted her first solo exhibition with the New York Photo League. Following the group's dismantlement by the FBI, Model transitioned to teaching. Her most notable pupils included Diane Arbus, Helen Gee and John Gossage.Distributed by Artbook | DAP.About the SpeakersAudrey Sands is the Richard L.

Join us at ICP for a conversation between artists Nuits Balnéaires and François-Xavier Gbré with curators David Campany and Clement Cheroux on the occasion of their exhibition, Latitudes: Nuits Balnéaires and François-Xavier Gbré. After the program, join the artists for a signing in the ICP Shop.This program is being offered both in person at ICP, located on NYC's Lower East Side, and online. Tickets to attend the conversation in person are $5 and include access to ICP’s galleries. About the ExhibitionInaugurated in 2024, Latitudes broadens the scope of Immersion, the former French-American photography commission launched in 2014 as a residency between France and the United States. The new program takes its name from a geographical concept, affirming its ambition to shed light on artists from scenes that are still underrepresented on the international stage. Côte d’Ivoire is the first country to be honored in the two-year cycle inaugurated in 2024. Each project will be accompanied by a photobook in English and French editions, co-published by Atelier EXB and the Fondation d’entreprise Hermès. About the SpeakersMultidisciplinary artist and poet Nuits Balnéaires was born and raised in Abidjan, into a family with Akan Agni-Bona and Malinké origins. With intimate connections to both peoples’ traditions, culture and spirituality, his work creates a parallel space-time beyond the constraints of geography, while embracing the universality of oceans as the connective tissue between worlds. Nuits Balnéaires cultivates powerful ties with the energy of the Gulf of Guinea and its landscapes, hence the omnipresence of water in his photographic practice, films and poetry. Haunted by the duality of life and death, and the possibility of communication between these states, his works convey a euphoric sense of tranquillity that feels both classical and contemporary. In 2019, Nuits Balnéaires settled in Grand-Bassam, Côte d’Ivoire, to develop his artistic practice, drawing on his years as a fashion and conceptual photographer. He secured a one-year bursary in visual journalism with the World Press Photo Foundation, and was among the winners of a 2020 call for projects from the Goethe-Institut and the Prince Claus Fund, which supports cultural and artistic responses to environmental change. Nuits Balnéaires’s work has been exhibited at Art X Lagos, Paris’s 1-54 Contemporary African Art Fair, FNB Art Johannesburg, and in numerous exhibitions across Côte d’Ivoire, Canada, the US, the UK, France, the Netherlands and Australia. Born in 1978 in Lille, France. François-Xavier Gbré lives and works between La Rochelle (France) and Abidjan (Côte d’Ivoire). Steeped in time and geography, Gbré’s work draws on the language of architecture as a witness to memory and social change. From colonial remains to landscapes redefined by current events, Gbré explores territories and revisits History. The constant dialogue with his environment leads him to use different scales and exhibition methods, whether crafting meticulous installations based on thorough investigations of the land, or using architecture itself to make photography resonate through a physical relationship with the viewer or the public space. His work has been shown in Paris and Abidjan at the Cécile Fakhoury Gallery, which represents him, at the Dakar Biennale in Senegal, the Venice Biennale in Italy, in Madagascar, Nigeria, the United States, and various European countries. His works are included, among others, in the collections of the Centre Pompidou (Paris, France), the Smithsonian Institution (Washington, USA), Tate Modern (London, UK), the Museum of Modern Art (New York, USA), the Walther Collection (Neu-Ulm, Germany – New York, USA), the Philadelphia Museum of Art (USA), the Collection of the Rencontres de la photographie d’Arles (France), and the FNAC – Fonds National d’Art Contemporain (France). In 2020, François-Xavier Gbré was awarded the Louis Roederer Discovery Award at the Rencontres de la photographie d’Arles. In 2024, he becomes the first laureate of the Fondation d’entreprise Hermès Latitudes program. David Campany is Creative Director of the International Center of Photography, New York. He has worked worldwide with institutions including MoMA New York, Tate, Whitechapel Gallery London, Centre Pompidou, Le Bal Paris, ICP New York, Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, The Photographer’s Gallery London, ParisPhoto, PhotoLondon, The National Portrait Gallery London, Aperture, Steidl, MIT Press, Thames & Hudson, MACK and Frieze. Clément Chéroux is a French photography historian and curator. He is the director of the Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson in Paris; he was previously chief curator of photography at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.
