Artist Talk + Book Launch: Wendel A. White

October 9 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Presented in-person and on Zoom

Join us to celebrate Wendel White’s new publication, Manifest | Thirteen Colonies, co-published by Radius Books and the Peabody Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology, Harvard University. We will learn more about White’s photography practice and have the opportunity to get a signed copy of his beautiful hardcover book. This event is free and open to the public. Purchase your copy ahead of time here.

Manifest | Thirteen Colonies is a journey through the repositories of African American material culture found in libraries, museums, and archives of the original thirteen English colonies and Washington, DC. White’s project is a personal reliquary of the remarkable evidence of Black agency and racial oppression stored in public collections.

“I am increasingly interested in the residual power of the past to inhabit material remains…Manifest is an effort to seek out the artifacts and material evidence of the American construct and representation of race.”

— Wendel A. White
