Philip Martin Gallery: Changing Times

2 October - 13 November 2021

Philip Martin Gallery is proud to present, "Changing Times," an exhibition of never-before-seen works by photographer Kwame Brathwaite (b. 1938, Brooklyn, NY). Shot between 1965-1975, Brathwaite's thoughtful, strikingly beautiful images depict love and unity across the Black diaspora. In photographs exploring Black subjectivity and viewership, Brathwaite, a leading architect of "Black is Beautiful," demonstrates that the power to construct one's own image is a vital tool for freedom, dignity, and self-determination.
