Pete Brook, Prison Obscura



Jeannie Hopper sits down with Prison Photography editor and curator Pete Brook, Director/Chief Curator of the Sheila C. Johnson Design Center at Parsons The New School for Design Radhika Subramaniam, and Associate Director of the Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery and Campus Exhibitions at Haverford College Matthew Seamus Calinan, to discuss Brook's touring exhibition Prison Obscura, a presentation of rarely seen vernacular, surveillance, evidentiary, and prisoner-made photographs. The group explores the relationship between the exhibition's subject and the academic environment at both Parsons and Haverford College.

Prison Obscura is on view at the Sheila C. Johnson Design Center/Parsons The New School for Design through April 17th, 2015.
