After a quiet day yesterday I stepped back into the museum arena today, with the ICP. The main exhibition that was excellent, 'For All The World To See' - Visual Culture and the Struggle for Civil Rights, explores the historic role of visual culture in shaping, influencing, and transforming the fight for racial equality and justice in the United States from the late 1940s to the mid 1970s. This exhibition of 230 photographs, objects and clips from television and film looks at the extent to which the rise of the modern civil rights movement paralleled the birth of television and the popularity of picture magazines and other forms of visual mass media.
10/10 for the exhibition and the centre, loved it all.
The web site to accompany the work is linked below as well as the ICP itself.
