It Ain't All Black and White is coming to Durham!! This deliberately curated collection of black and white photographs will be hosted by the DAG Truist Gallery at 120 Morris St. Durham, NC 27701 April 19, 2024 through June 6, 2024. 

Please join us on April 19th at 6pm to celebrate the occasion!! 

Statement:

Black people are often asked to shrink their complex emotions into two categories, joy and pain; sitting high on joy as a reaction against the impact of colonization or burdened by pain that is exploited as the focal element in galleries, news, and social media. It Ain’t All Black and White is a photography exhibition that encourages us to consider emotions such as serenity, apprehension, yearning, and more. Captured by 11 dynamic photographers dedicated to documenting the fullness and complexity of Black life, this exhibition offers each of us an opportunity to see ourselves with renewed attention.
