Last chance to see “Where the Birds Never Sing” at @Photoville in Brooklyn Bridge Park!
Open through Sunday, June 26, Magnum Foundation’s exhibit features Soumya Sankar Bose’s (@soumyasankarbose) long term-project on the Marichjhapi massacre, the forcible eviction in 1979 of Bengali lower caste refugees from the Marichjhapi Island in Sundarbans, West Bengal, India and the subsequent death of thousands by police gunfire, starvation, and disease. With almost no written record or official documentation of this incident, Bose researched and re-enacted the memories of survivors, weaving together perspectives on this painful history that faces slow erasure from collective memory.
Also on view at @Photoville are several other Magnum Foundation grantees past and present, including Alice Proujansky (@aliceproujansky), Cinthya Santos Briones (@cinthyasantosb), Nolan Ryan Trowe (@nolantrowe), Liz Sanders (@lizmariesanders), and Sarah Stacke (@sarah_stacke).
Don’t miss out on seeing these and so many other powerful photographic projects, exhibited outdoors for the public through Sunday!
