The Larger Conversation: Reclamation- Power, Agency and the Black Model

The Larger Conversation: Reclamation- Power, Agency and the Black Model

Presented by Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum at Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum

Do we each have a say over our bodies and images once they are captured in a portrait, photo, or on a smartphone by another person? Join us for a community conversation that examines the role, cultural relevance, and societal impact of the 19th-century black model. Hear unique perspectives from Boston's own artists, activists and advocates, who cross examine issues of race, gender, class and the differences between muse, model and object.
