Matthew Connors, General Assembly : [exhibition] August 24-October 15, 2020, virtual artist talk: Friday, September 25, 5 pm. by Connors, Matthew,1976-photographer.(CARDINAL)855864; Hodgens, Mary Lee,writer of introduction.(CARDINAL)783615; Light Work (Organization : Syracuse, N.Y.),organizer,publisher.(CARDINAL)188261; Robert B.

Matthew Connors received a BA in English Literature from the University of Chicago and an MFA in Photography from Yale University."Light Work presents Queens-based artist Matthew Connors' 'General Assembly'. This exhibition comprises 650 portraits that span the first year of Occupy Wall Street (OWS) in New York City. An expansive project that pairs individual black and white portraits within a tightly formatted grid, 'General Assembly' borrows its title from the movement's term for its horizontal decision-making process. Connors made these black-and-white portraits in the charged atmosphere of Zuccotti Park, elsewhere in New York City at direct actions and during more contemplative moments before and after working group meetings. When Connors first arrived at Zuccotti Park in September of 2011, he had no intention of making photographs. He first gravitated to the congregation of protesters who occupied Manhattan's Financial District out of simple curiosity. But as he observed Occupy Wall Street's 'wellspring of generative social organization', he wondered how photography could contribute to the historical moment before him. Disturbed by the way that passersby were photographing protesters at a distance, he immersed himself in the activity of the movement and sought to use his camera as a tool of engagement."--Light Work description online at source URL: https://www.lightwork.org/product/contact-sheet-208-matthew-connors/Catalog of an exhibition held 2020 August 24-October 15, at Kathleen O.

Corky Lee's Asian America : fifty years of photographic justice / by Lee, Corky,1947-2021,photographer.(CARDINAL)894754; Ng, Chee Wang,editor.(CARDINAL)894755; Ngai, Mae M.,editor.(CARDINAL)822082;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 303-305) and index."A posthumous collection of over 200 breathtaking photographs that document the history and cultural impact of the Asian American social justice movement, through the lens of beloved photographer Corky Lee--the man who sought to change the world one photograph at a time Using his camera as his pen and sword, Corky Lee documented Asian American-Pacific Islander communities for fifty continuous years, breaking the stereotype of Asian Americans as docile, passive, and, above all, foreign to this country. Corky Lee's Asian America is a stunning retrospective of his life's work--a selection of the best photographs from his vast collection, including those he personally chose before he passed, from his start in New York's Chinatown to his coverage of diverse Asian American communities across the country. The pages in this book unfold Lee's decades-long quest for photographic justice, tracking AAPI social movements for recognition and rights alongside Corky's artistic development as a social photographer and activist. Iconic photographs of protests against police brutality in New York in the 1970s, a Sikh man draped in an American flag post-9/11, and a reenactment of the completion of the transcontinental railroad featuring descendants of Chinese railroad workers, live side by side with photos of New York's Chinatown from the inside--a child sitting on a tenement fire escape, a Chinese woman driving her taxi, an opera singer sitting on a park bench adjusting her hair, a package of laundry, waiting to be picked up. Asian American writers, artists, activists, and friends of Lee--including a foreword from writer Hua Hsu and essays from filmmaker Renée Tajima-Peña, writer Helen Zia, historians Gordon Chang and Vivek Bald, playwright David Henry Hwang, and TK--provide rich historical and cultural context to the photographs, while reflecting on their relationships to Lee. Corky Lee's Asian America represents Lee's mission to write a history of inclusion, resistance, ethnic pride, and patriotism. This is a remarkable documentary collection of that history in the moments of its making, but it's also a history that we continue to make"--

Imprisoned in a luminous glare : photography and the African American freedom struggle / by Raiford, Leigh.(CARDINAL)280653;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 261-281) and index.No relation to the facts about lynching -- Come let us build a new world together -- Attacked first by sight -- Conclusion : Or was it the pictures that made her unrecognizable?In Imprisoned in a Luminous Glare, Leigh Raiford argues that over the past one hundred years activists in the black freedom struggle have used photographic imagery both to gain political recognition and to develop a different visual vocabulary about black lives. Raiford analyzes why activists chose photography over other media, explores the doubts some individuals had about the strategies, and shows how photography became an increasingly effective, if complex, tool in representing black political interests.Offering readings of the use of photography in the antilynching movement, the civil rights movement, and the black power movement, Raiford focuses on key transformations in technology, society, and politics to understand the evolution of photography's deployment in capturing white oppression, black resistance, and African American life. By putting photography at the center of the long African American freedom struggle, Raiford also explores how the recirculation of these indelible images in political campaigns and art exhibits both adds to and complicates our memory of the events. --Book Jacket.

Revolution in black and white : photographs of the Civil Rights Era by Ernest C. Withers / by Withers, Ernest C.,1922-2007,photographer.(CARDINAL)681230; Williams, Michael(Michael F.),author.(CARDINAL)545810; Cahan, Richard,author.(CARDINAL)743716; Young, Andrew,1932-writer of foreword.(CARDINAL)150132;
"Ernest C. Withers was one of the most prominent African-American photographers during the civil rights years.During the course of his work, he took thousands photographs that document the Movement--from the Emmett Till trial in 1955 to the assassination of Martin Luther King in 1968. What set his work apart was that he goes beyond the political struggles to show the human face of Movement. Withers worked primarily a local photographer,as a freelancer for the Memphis World and Tri-State Defender starting in 1948. His photographs of the everyday world--proms, funerals, people at work and play, and street life--create a stunning record of what it was like to live in Memphis and the Mid-South. He was also a noted baseball photographer, documenting Negro League baseball, and a noted music photographer, taking thousands of photographs of early jazz, blues, rock 'n' roll and R&B performers. This book combines all of his work for the first time and uses first-hand accounts from men and women who lived in the South to explain these transformative years. The photographs, taken as bare-bones journalism, rise to the level of fine art decades later. They are also important examples of photojournalism, documenting decades of struggle in Memphis and the Mid-South. They serve as an important missing link in the civil rights narrative. This book goes beyond the headlines to show how Withers created an essential record for all of us to better understand life in the South during this crucial era."--Publisher's website.
