Rev. William M. Norwood, Gordon Parks, silver print
This color photograph which is taken from a lower perspective shows the space surrounded by skyscrapers. A man walks toward the viewer with his hands in his pockets and looks to his left. Another more distant figure stands behind him. At the right, the flag of the United States and the flag of New York City fly in front of the buildings.
"Contact Ad" Series, Alex Flemming, acrylic on canvas
At the left of the black-and-white image, a teenage girl and boy lean against the front side of a car parked on a suburban street. The girl, dressed in a T-shirt and cut-off blue jeans, looks over at the shirtless boy who looks directly toward the camera.
