- Summary:
- Dawoud Bey and Carrie Mae Weems met in New York in the late 1970s, and over the next 45 years, these close friends and colleagues have each produced bodies of work around shared interests and concerns. This publication brings together over 140 photographs and video art from the 1970s through the 2010s. Since first meeting at the Studio Museum in Harlem five decades ago, Bey and Weems have maintained mutual engagement while exploring and addressing similar themes: race, class, representation, and systems of power.
