The Florida museum has presented a comprehensive survey of Haitian photography (taking place from June 21 – October 4, 2015), featuring almost 350 works from the late 19th century to present day Haiti. The collection, curated by Haitian-American artist Edouard Duval-Carrié, is described by the museum as a “a fascinating perspective on life in Haiti and how political and natural crises have been perceived by native and foreign photographers and photojournalists.” Explore below!
