BECOMING: PHOTOGRAPHS FROM THE WEDGE COLLECTION
Curated by Kenneth Montague
September 12 through December 28, 2008

Becoming: Photographs from the Wedge Collection examines ways in which personal and cultural identity are created, challenged, or affirmed. Through portraiture, these works by artists from Canada, the United States, Africa and throughout the Diaspora, trace the evolving politics of representation. Whether documentation of an era or reflections on family histories, the images provide insights into the changing roles of the artist and subject.
