Join us for all or part of Illustration and Race: Rethinking the History of Published Images
This symposium is generously funded with support from the Terra Foundation for American Art.

Compelling conversations with illustrators, art directors, authors, and scholars will explore more than three hundred years of racial representation in published art and the role of mass-circulated imagery as a force in shaping public perception about people and groups of people. Presented in conjunction with Imprinted: Illustrating Race, the Museum’s current exhibition, this symposium will spark dialogue about the ways that art, advertising, and systems of publishing have helped to frame public opinion, and how the art of illustration is a force for change today.

Session Five
ILLUSTRATION, RACE, AND RESPONSIBILITY TODAY
With Hollis King, Robyn Phillips-Pendleton, Rudy Gutierrez, and Gregory Christie

Promoting new ideas by creating imagery that celebrates, normalizes, and connects the visual stories of people of color is essential to an inclusive discussion of race. Artist and art director Hollis King will lead a panel of artists, including Rudy Gutierrez, Gregory Christie, and Robyn Phillips Pendleton, in discussion about the power of illustration to inspire change. They will also share their personal experiences in the marketplace and thoughts on expanding access in the field across platforms for working and aspiring illustrators.
