The Revelations of Diane Arbus

Diane Arbus revolutionized the art she practiced, and her achievement continues to be a wholly original force in photography. At the time of her death in 1971, she left behind a profound and startling body of work that renders the familiar strange and uncovers the familiar within the exotic. Join Elisabeth Sussman, exhibition co-curator and Sondra Gilman Curator of Photography at the Whitney Museum of American Art; Jeff L. Rosenheim, associate curator in the department of photography at the Metropolitan Museum of Art; and Neil Selkirk, photographer and exclusive printer for the Estate of Diane Arbus since 1971, for a panel discussion on the artist’s influences and the evolution of her distinctive vision. Moderated by Walker associate curator Elizabeth Carpenter.
