Peace to the Queen, is a retrospective exhibition of works that spans the four-decade career of world renowned photographer Jamel Shabazz. On view at the Carver Museum & Cultural Center from February 4, 2022 - August 6, 2021, this exhibit features portraits of Black, Brown, and Indigenous women of color. Candid, artful, and intimate—this curated selection of images allows viewers to witness the joy, sovereign beauty, and wisdom of these women. This conversation will feature Ja'nell Ajani, curator of "Peace the Queen," Carre Adams, Director of CarverMuseumATX, and curator of the Bronx Museum where a concurrent exhibition of Shabazz's work will be on view. The conversation will focus on the womanist iconography that has been developed by Jamel Shabazz over the past 40-years. Venue: Carver Museum
