Allan Sekula: Polonia and Other Fables

September 20 to December 13, 2009

Opening reception September 20 from 4 to 7 pm

 

Photographer Allan Sekula's new series, titled Polonia and Other Fables, critically documents and examines the social impact of global economics.  Always aiming to position his work within an exhibition's local community, Sekula will develop this project to focus on Chicago's rich labor history, in particular on the city's large Polish immigrant population, and The University of Chicago's famous lineage of economic theorists.
