(Re)Constructing History considers photography’s capacity to register a moment while holding layered histories within the present. Across three galleries, photographic works address Wall Street as a symbol of power, the reworking of visual traditions through reference and appropriation, and the medium’s ability to reveal hidden forces shaping environments. Works by Carrie Mae Weems, Nona Faustine, Carla Williams, and Dawoud Bey foreground histories of Black life often omitted or obscured.
