Lecture: Photography and Antiblackness

Arts and Culture, Diversity and Inclusion, Literature, Lectures, and Talks

December 3, 2024 | 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm  

The Clark Art Institute’s Research and Academic Program presents Photography, Antiblackness, and the Politics of the Visual, a lecture by Kimberly Juanita Brown, Director of the Institute for Black Intellectual and Cultural Life and Associate Professor of English and Creative Writing at Dartmouth College. This free event takes place in the Manton Research Center auditorium. Brown examines photography’s long history as tethered to global histories of antiblackness that have ritualized ways of seeing for the viewing public. She unpacks what she calls a “cartography of the ocular” as one of the important ways to measure legibility in images of violated black subjects.
