Yesterday, Jack Shainman Gallery debuted a two-part exhibition of photographs by Gordon Parks at both its gallery locations, where they will remain open through February 20. Titled “Half and the Whole,” the show is a tribute to the late artist’s impactful images of Black Americans, acknowledging their continued relevance in the present day. Accompanied by an essay written by the Pulitzer Prize-nominated writer Jelani Cobb, the photographs on view include a mixture of color and black and white images taken between 1942—1970.
