Joshua Rashaad McFadden, photographer

I have been working on—proofreading—a catalog for an upcoming exhibition of photographs by a powerful photographer, Joshua Rashaad McFadden. The show, opening in November, will be at the Eastman Museum in Rochester, New York. Here are some of JRM's photographs (click on them to see them large):

From After Selma, 2015

From After Selma, 2015

Avery Jackson, from Evidence, 2017

 

Against a backdrop of billowing smoke from
a local fire, Black Americans band together
in exhibition of their strength and resilience
in the face of adversity. Protests continue
in support of George Floyd, a Black man
unjustly killed by police while detained.
