Photo Center NW is set to host an opening reception tonight at 6:00 PM for two new exhibitions, Question Bridge and Seen, both focusing on black men. They’ll run through March 8.

Question Bridge: Black Males is a project that critically explores challenging issues within the Black male community by instigating a transmedia conversation among black men across the geographic, economic, generational, educational and social strata of American society. Question Bridge provides a safe setting for necessary, honest expression and healing dialogue on themes that divide, unite and puzzle black males in the United States. Please join us on Wednesday, January 22nd for an artist lecture with Hank Willis Thomas, artist and Question Bridge collaborator.

Photographs in Seen were selected from images submitted by men of African diasporal descent in the Northwest in response to the question: In one photograph, what would you say? Photographs from twenty-six men ranging from age 4 to 70 were chosen by the curators and reflect a diverse range of subject and aesthetic approaches.   Please join us on Wednesday, January 22nd for an artist lecture with Hank Willis Thomas, artist and Question Bridge collaborator.
