Through a lecture accompanied by a selection of photographs\, he brings into focus the human and national realities shaped by two decades of war. \nAbout the speaker: \nPeter van Agtmael is an American documentary photographer and member of Magnum Photos whose work explores the human\, political\, and psychological consequences of power\, war\, and national identity\, particularly in the United States. He is known for his long-term coverage of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and their reverberations at home. His photographs blend conflict\, spectacle\, and intimate moments to challenge American mythologies\, marked by emotional complexity\, irony\, and moral ambiguity. His work has received many awards recognition\, including a Guggenheim Fellowship and World Press Photo awards\, and is widely exhibited and published worldwide.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]Important information: \n\n\n\n\nPlease be aware that some images shown during this event may be graphic. \n\n\n\n\nThe discussion will be available both online and in person.

In this playful\, hands-on workshop led by American Library in Paris Scholar of Note\, Dr. Eve L. Ewing\, we’ll read\, write\, and savor our way through the senses—touching crust\, breathing in warm aromas\, listening to the crackle of fresh bread\, and\, of course\, tasting. Through a craft lecture\, lively prompts\, and shared bread\, participants will transform simple sensory pleasures into surprising poems\, turning flavor into poetry.  \nAbout the speaker: \nDr. Eve L. Ewing is a writer\, scholar\, and cultural organizer from Chicago. She is the award-winning author of several books\, including most recently Original Sins: The (Mis)education of Black and Native Children and the Construction of American Racism\, an instant New York Times and USA Today bestseller. She works across genres\, also penning works in theater\, television\, and comics. Ewing is an associate professor in the Department of Race\, Diaspora\, and Indigeneity at the University of Chicago. As Scholar of Note at the American Library\, Ewing will be working on a collection of essays about the joy and craft of bread and what it reveals about society\, culture\, history\, and communities.[/vc_column_text][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]Important information: This event will be in-person only and will not be recorded.
