Photographer John Shearer will present his first solo museum exhibition entitled 'America (Continued).' Shearer's project explores immigration from a very personal perspective (his grandfather emigrated to the United States from Grenada as a teenager in the 1920s) that utilizes both his past in the Civil Rights movement as well recent work with immigrant communities in Fairfield and Westchester Counties. Shearer, a highly respected senior figure from the world of American photojournalism, was one of the first African-American photographers to work for a major publication, becoming staff photographer for Look magazine in 1964 at the age of seventeen.
