What makes a photograph emblematic of an era? Join us for this free online conversation between artist Joshua Rashaad McFadden and Lisa Hostetler, curator in charge, Department of Photography. McFadden and Hostetler will discuss historic and contemporary images that have become iconic, deconstruct how they came to be so, and strategies for looking thoughtfully at the barrage of images we see every day.
