Saddled, With History

What can twenty-first-century photographs of Louisiana convey about centuries of Creole culture and history?  How do images of Black trail riders challenge our expectations about horses and who rides them?  What do these photographs reveal about how Black community is built and how Black joy is expressed?

Join us on Zoom on Wednesday, August 24, at 5:30 PM (PT), as Lois Leveen leads a discussion of photographs from Jeremiah Ariaz’s series Louisiana Trail Riders, currently on view at Blue Sky.

REFOCUSING is a free program from Blue Sky Gallery, in which we explore ways to redefine and strengthen community by engaging online with photographs and with each other.
