Working Together: The Photographers of the Kamoinge Workshop
February 25, 2022–May 15, 2022
“This exhibition chronicles the formative years of the Kamoinge Workshop, a collective of Black photographers founded in New York in 1963. The group drew their name from the Gikuyu language of the Kikuyu people of Kenya. Meaning “a group of people acting or working together,” the word kamoinge captures a central commitment to community, collective action, self-representation, and a global outlook.
Working Together features more than 150 photographs by fourteen of the group’s early members, as well as the photographer Roy DeCarava—a formative influence and a key mentor in the Workshop’s first years.”
