About this Event
Join legendary American photographer Eugene Richards for a presentation of photography and short documentary video from his latest photobook publication, Do I Know You?
After meeting people during his travels, the American documentary photographer Richards learns what he can about their lives, then photographs them as they are, without direction or artifice. As to why people allow him into their lives, some may sense that by speaking with him, they might better understand the things that they’ve experienced: their losses, hopes, fears, disappointments, joys.
Being photographed can be a means of being lifted out of the shadows, acknowledged as existing, as alive. Do I Know You? is a compendium of 24 photographic and textual stories that speak of the diversity of America, of survival, the shadows cast by slavery, crime, imprisonment, blind hatred, incomprehensible loss, the longing for love and what it means to be beautiful.
Following the presentation, Richards will be in conversation with BDC Founder and Creative Director, Mike Kamber, for a community discussion and Q&A. Both Do I Know You? and some of Richards’ previous titles will be available to purchase at the event.
