Wendy Ewald In Peace and Harmony: Carver Portraits
Publisher's Description
Kentucky, South Africa, the Columbian Andes—
photographer Wendy Ewald has collaborated with
children all over the world, but she has not always
been able to display her work where the members
of those childrens’ communities were bound to
see it. In Peace and Harmony documents Ewald’s
first public art installation, one on which she
worked with a group of second, third, fourth
and fifth graders at George Washington Carver
Elementary School in Richmond, Virginia. The
project culminated in the display of 29 billboardsized
photographic portrait banners hanging in
12 outdoor locations throughout the Carver
neighborhood, each one marked with the students’
own words in their own hand. Illustrations document
the process and the installation, offering
what amounts to a visual tour of its outdoor sites,
and two essays are augmented by an extensive
interview with the artist and responses from in
and outside the neighborhood.
