Photographs survey Latin Americans entering the United States, Jews leaving the former Soviet Union, Africans traveling into Europe, and Bosnian refugees in Croatia, among many other diverse and displaced groups. Salgado's carefully contemplated work enhances the viewer's understanding of a changing global consciousness, and effectively reveals some profound implications of a world in transition. This major internationally traveling exhibition is organized by Aperture and is curated by Lélia Wanick Salgado. Presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and The Chicago Public Library. Supported in part by a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts. Works are also on display at Harold Washington Library Center. _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam?
