Join us for a guided walking tour of the exhibitions Weegee: Society of the Spectacle, To Conjure: New Archives in Recent Photography, and American Job 1940-2011.
About the Exhibitions
Weegee: Society of the Spectacle aims to reconcile Weegee's broad photographic career through an investigation of his focus on a critique of 20th century popular culture and its insatiable appetite for spectacle.
To Conjure: New Archives in Recent Photography reimagines what an archive can be or might look like—more than just a means of recuperating the past, these artists utilize the archive as a form for imagining new futures.
American Job: 1941-2011 surveys the photographic response to labor organizing and strike activity, race and gender discrimination in labor, organized labor’s role in politics, labor and activism, and the intersection of labor and the social changes wrought by the economic restructurings of the twentieth century.
