About the Exhibition
In February of this year, photographer Tyler Mitchell presented I Can Make You Feel Good at ICP as a declaration of joy and presence. Perhaps it was also foreshadowing. In these unprecedented times during a global pandemic and the fight for racial justice—for the survival of Black and Brown peoples around the world—ICP is honored to extend this exhibition and invite our audiences to re-view the significance and potency of Mitchell’s work. In I Can Make You Feel Good, he posits great possibilities for a future of pleasure, power and visibility and asks us to consider what a Black utopia could look like. Imagine.
Reserve your timed entry ticket to see the show at ICP in person starting October 1.
