"Gordon Parks: Crossroads" Art Exhibit

This exhibition represents a retrospective of the photography of Gordon Parks, one of the first African American photographers to break the color barrier at a major magazine. Beginning in 1949, when he went to work for Life magazine, he completed photo essays for more than 300 assignments. These assignments included such topics as gang warfare, a Rio slum, and a poverty stricken family in Harlem. Parks also covered fashion and celebrities. This exhibition will be held during Black History month at the College and will be connected with events through the Office of Multicultural Affairs.
