Family Narratives in Face to Face: Portraits of Self and Other

Enjoy a virtual sneak peek of the fall exhibition Face to Face: Portraits of Self and Other with exhibition curators Dr. Gannit Ankori and Chad Sirois as they discuss family narratives embedded within the exhibition. Used variously to document personal histories and signal status, family photographic portraits are as old as the medium itself. Here, the curators will discuss images that complicate the genre, subverting traditional notions of the American family and history. 

This program is held in conjunction with the exhibition, Face to Face: Portraits of Self and Other, on view September 18–December 29, 2024.
