About this Event
14th St & Anderson Ave, Manhattan, KS 66506
https://beach.k-state.edu/explore/exhibitions/gordon-parks-homeward-to-the-prairie-i-come.htmlThis exhibition features photographs donated by Parks to Kansas State University (K-State) in Manhattan, Kansas, in 1973. It was the first time that the artist personally curated a set of photographs to donate to a public institution, a kind of self-portrait directed towards the home crowd. The exhibition title includes the first line of a poem written by Parks in 1984, commissioned by and published in the Manhattan Mercury. K-State’s New Prairie Press will publish an accompanying open-access digital catalogue with new research on Parks and Kansas. Online version also will be offered.
