The Migration Photographers: From Ellis Island to ICE


ID : 2001   

« back to classes page
ClassGraphic We will explore how gifted photographers have documented migrations, from hopeful arrivals at Ellis Island to today’s surveillance and deportation of immigrants by ICE. Through historical images up to contemporary photojournalism, we’ll examine how these committed men and women have shared their migration stories and along the way shaped the story of human movement, belonging, and exclusion. We’ll study photographers from Alfred Stieglitz and Dorothea Lange to Sebastião Salgado, Matt Black, and Stephanie Keith. We’ll also look at the ethical and artistic challenges of photographing people in crisis.
