The Winston Tabb Special Collections Research Center proudly presents:

A talk by Jeanne Vaccaro: “I wanted the world to see us: on what a photograph does”

What tactile historical openings might a curatorial method of archiving yield? Thinking across trans visual culture and oral history, Vaccaro presents work from her social and public practice. Jeanne Vaccaro is a scholar and curator of contemporary art and public practice whose research and teaching endeavor to recalibrate art history’s norms and canons. Her book in process, Handmade: Feelings and Textures of Transgender, considers the felt labor of making identity.

The event is free and open to the public. ID is required to enter the Brody Learning Commons, where the event will be held. Light lunch provided.

Wed, Apr 19 at noon
