 r 18 to December 3\, 2021.聽 An artist talk will be held on Thursday\, Octo
 ber 21 at 6:00pm in the gallery\, with a reception to follow.\n\nKris Grav
 es masterfully utilizes landscape and portrait photography to create a vis
 ual dialogue about the representation of Black people within the vast span
  of systemic racism in our culture. 聽Graves鈥� images have the power to cut 
 through divisive rhetoric and compel viewers to reflect on longstanding is
 sues plaguing our own communities and society at large\, such as police vi
 olence against people of color and the dismantling and re-envisioning of r
 acist monuments. The exhibition includes work from several different serie
 s\, including The Testament Project\, an exploration of the contemporary B
 lack experience in America. 聽鈥淢ore often than not\,鈥� Graves says\, 鈥淏lack 
 people are portrayed in the extreme鈥攅ither as very rich or very poor\, the
 y are demonized\, infantilized\, ridiculed\, idolized or hyper-sexualized\
 ; and within the art canon there is a noticeable scarcity of Black represe
 ntation.鈥� In this vibrant series\, subjects of Graves鈥� portraits are empow
 ered through their active participation. Arranging the richly hued portrai
 ts in a grid\, Graves describes these photographs as emphasizing the indiv
 iduality of the subjects in addition to their blackness. This also creates
  a space for the viewer to reflect on the depth of racism in America.聽\n\n
 Based in New York and London\, Graves has been published and exhibited glo
 bally\, including the National Portrait Gallery in London\, and Aperture G
 allery\, New York\, among others. Permanent collections include the Metrop
 olitan Museum of Art\, Schomburg Center\, Whitney Museum\, Guggenheim Muse
 um\, Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston\, Brooklyn Museum\, and The Wedge Colle
 ction\, Toronto\, amongst others.\n\nAlex Zamalin聽is an associate professo
 r of political science and the director of the African American Studies Pr
 ogram at the University of Detroit Mercy. His areas of expertise include A
