Comer Collection: “Crafting Cultural Hybridity”

Brought to you by the Marilyn and Jerry Comer Collection of Photography.

This exhibition, which displays Gay Block’s works alongside a selection of photographs from the Comer Collection, explores ideas of identity in marginalized individuals and communities and how photographers negotiate their relationship with said communities as either insider or interpreter. The exhibition is viewable by appointment* at the SP/N Gallery from March 26 – April 24.

Jessica Ingle, Curator, will be giving a virtual walk-thru and curator’s talk which can be viewed throughout the duration of the show.

Gay Block will be giving a virtual lecture on Tuesday, March 30, at 7 p.m. on Zoom. Register here.
