Posing Questions on Posing Beauty: A conversation with Deborah Willis

Join us for a conversation with Deborah Willis, award winning MacArthur Fellow, artist, curator, professor and eminent scholar in the history of Black photography, and Jade Powers, the new Curator of Art at the Harn Museum. Willis and Powers will explore topics presented in the current Harn exhibition Posing Beauty in African American Culture, including themes of beauty, joy, and self-fashioned Black identity in photographs dating from the 1890s to the present. The galleries will be open until 5pm, at which time the Auditorium will open for seating.
