Signal Crossings features work by graduating students of ICP’s One-Year Certificate programs in Documentary Practice and Visual Journalism, General Studies in Photography, and New Media Narratives.
The work in this exhibition gives meaning to the power of photography to educate and inform, to probe and unveil stories and situations that are rarely geographically far from lived experience. The desire to cross boundaries and engage with new and diverse histories echoes the ethos of ICP founder Cornell Capa, who recognized the role of photography in society and the value of a joint school and museum as a place where communities can learn and grow collectively.
With billions of images made and shared globally every day, the work in Signal Crossings asks us to slow down and actually look, listen, and read, and consider your friends, the person you just walked past, or the paper you hold in your hand. The photographs, books, zines, videos, new media projects, installations and performances offer stories to incite empathy and wonder. These artists are not youthful cynics, but driven by concern and fascination with the world around us.
Signal Crossings is curated by Cynthia Young and Mamie Heldman.
