Exhibition: "Society After Revolution: Photographs by Kian Nowrouzi"
March 25 - August 7, 2016
Reception: Wednesday, April 20, 5-6 pm
Working in the medium of black and white digital photography, Union College senior, Kian Nowrouzi, captures human emotion and a diversity of culture within contemporary, post-revolutionary China and Cuba. His photographs are striking and original, and his use of the black and white medium, as well as classic composition, imparts a timelessness to the frames. Activities and behaviors of divergent social classes, religions, and genders are captured street-level, and despite evidence of residual struggle, Nowrouzi's portraits reveal a vibrancy and an enormous strength of spirit.
There will be a reception on Wednesday, April 20, from 5-6 pm.
This exhibition is generously co-sponsored by the International Programs Office.
The Wikoff Student Gallery is located on the third floor of the Nott Memorial. All exhibitions and events are free and open to the public. For more information, please visit our website, http://muse.union.edu/mandeville/
