A Virginia exhibition traced the Kamoinge Workshop’s first two decades

THE STORY, IN BRIEF

ART AFRICA previewed the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts exhibition Working Together, devoted to Louis Draper and the Kamoinge Workshop. Drawing on photographs, archives and oral histories, it explored how the New York collective built opportunities for Black photographers through shared criticism, exhibitions and publishing. The 2020 presentation brought together more than 180 photographs by fifteen early members, alongside work to make Draper’s archive available digitally.
