Join photographer Kelli Connell as she discusses her work in the new exhibition Pictures for Charis, on view in the museum’s Mark Schwartz and Bettina Katz Photography Galleries (Gallery 230) through May 25. Connell uses photography to investigate sexuality, gender, identity, and the relationships between photographer and subject. In Pictures for Charis, Connell reconsiders the relationship between writer Charis (pronounced CARE-iss) Wilson and photographer Edward Weston while exploring Connell’s own relationship with her partner at the time, sculptor Betsy Odom. A professor at Columbia College in Chicago, Connell has photographs in the collections of major museums across the country, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, J. Paul Getty Museum, and Philadelphia Museum of Art. She has won numerous awards and residencies, including a Guggenheim Fellowship.
This lecture is made possible by the Fran and Warren Rupp Contemporary Artist Fund.
