Join us this Sunday, May 31, for a conversation with #WhitneyBiennial artist Mao Ishikawa. Beginning with her series Red Flower, Ishikawa’s work with photography has produced intimate images of people navigating complex political realities. For this conversation, we’re thrilled to bring together scholars and curators to consider Ishikawa’s innovative work in the context of postwar Okinawa, her reception in the U.S., and broader histories of photography in both Japan and the U.S. Speakers: Joan Kee, Judy and Michael Steinhardt Director of nyuifa nakamoriyasufumi, curator and writer miwasusuda, writer, educator and consultant paulinevermare, Phillip and Edith Leonian Curator of Photography at brooklynmuseum Moderated by drewmsawyer, Biennial co-curator 🔗 in bio for tickets — Mao Ishikawa, Untitled, from the series Akabanaa (Red Flowers), 1975–77.
