Join us for a special reception prior to our Scholl Lecture Series with renowned artist Dawoud Bey and PAMM Director Franklin Sirmans.

The conversation will center around Bey’s projects from 2012 to 2021. His recent projects engage in a reimagining of the African American past and situate them in a contemporary conversation, making clear how the past continues to inform and shape the present. Two of Bey’s photographs, Wallace Simmons and Eric Allums, Birmingham, AL, and Cabin and Palm Trees were recently acquired by the museum by way of the generous support of the PAMM Fund for Black Art.
