“A Period In Time”
On View: October 3 – November 16, 2025

''When I first fell in love with photography, I had a deep desire to tell stories that could have an impact on both individuals and the greater good. I wanted to produce stories that would contribute to positive change in the world. But what’s truly captivating about being a visual storyteller is the privilege to learn about the world and observe individuals who are doing inspiring acts or living through traumatic and trying times.''— Ed Kashi

One of the world's most celebrated photojournalists and filmmakers, Ed Kashi has dedicated the past 45 years to documenting the social and geopolitical issues that define our era. His newest book, A Period in Time: Looking Back while Moving Forward: 1977–2022, is a stunning and expansive retrospective of photographs spanning the world and his prolific career. Over 200 images collected in this book reflect his commitment to bear witness. Essays and contextual writings combine with the photographs to provide a personal, in-depth look at significant historical events.

No single book could possibly capture and sum up the entirety of a career as rich in scope and breadth as Kashi's, and that is not what this book sets out to accomplish. Rather, this moving retrospective highlights the essence of Kashi's belief about the unique power of photography to see, record, and share both the overt and the subtle details of the human experience. His work covers dramatic global events, while also accentuating the less visible background moments that often go unnoticed.

In his Introduction, Kashi reflects, ''Photography is a kind of diplomatic passport to worlds unseen, unveiling issues that need illumination, documenting history in the making, and capturing the human experience and the many awe-inspiring places in our fragile world. I’ve witnessed too many powerful moments to recount them all. This book is a testimony to some of the most important stories I was motivated to pursue and dedicate myself to. My life has been shaped by these stories, the people I had the privilege to observe and learn from, and the places and narratives that have shaped who I’ve become.''

The book includes both color and black and white images and is divided into sections by timeline and project. The book opens in 1977 where Kashi's career in photography began. After almost a decade of magazine assignments, he undertook his first long-term documentary project in 1988 exploring the Protestant community in Northern Ireland. This photographic work would lead to his illustrious tenure with National Geographic.

From 1991-2005 Kashi documented the struggles and perseverance of the Kurdish people, the largest ethnic group in the world without a nation. From the impacts of World War I to the Gulf War to the genocide of Saddam Hussein, Kashi writes, For anyone who encounters the Kurds, it is impossible to remain silent. These photographs are a tribute to the strength and dignity of the Kurdish people.

The book also includes sections with images from Berlin, Ukraine, Cairo, Vietnam, Syria, Lebanon, Pakistan, Iraq, the Niger Delta, India, and Nicaragua, among others. A section on the Middle East spans 1991-2008 and connects to his heritage. His parents were born in Baghdad, Iraq, and immigrated to the United States in 1940. Kashi shares, ''My work and travels in the Middle East finally opened my eyes and heart to my familial origins, not the assimilated reality of a first-generation American.'' Kashi has photographed in 12 of the 22 countries in this region.

Kashi has also worked domestically, notably on an eight-year project with his wife chronicling what it means to age in America. This body of work challenges assumptions, while also looking honestly and compassionately at the inherent hardships of growing old.

A distinguishing element to this book is what is learned about the artist behind the photographs. Kashi offers us an intimate view into the personal effects and impressions of being in the field. He also shares deep insights into the relationship with his wife Julie Winokur, through Dispatches or emails, he exchanged with her while away on assignment. These dispatches are interspersed throughout the book providing a personal voice that reveals authentic, raw glimpses into the situations he witnessed and challenges he experienced.

The book is being published by the Briscoe Center for American History at the University of Texas at Austin, also the home of Kashi’s expansive archive. Don Carleton, the center's executive director, wrote the book's Preface, which highlights the importance of such a collection: “An archive of photographic images can have the potential of being not merely a stagnant repository, but a dynamic way for images from the past to bear witness. Such an archive provides us with opportunities to look deeper at the world around us—as it has been, as it is now, and how it might be in the future.

As Carleton notes, the information preserved on film and in the accompanying words and ephemera not only serves as evidence, but also as context for understanding history, people, and events. One of the primary missions of the Briscoe Center is to collect the work of outstanding photojournalists and documentary photographers because their images can be rich sources of visual historical evidence that can be read and interpreted in the same way as textual documents. If critically analyzed and evaluated, that characteristic can allow them to serve as important sources for research and teaching.

This retrospective book is a slice of Kashi's extensive archive, but the thoughtfulness in which the images and writings were compiled, results in a powerful overview. In Kashi’s own words, his archive is a growing, thriving, and continually evolving organism that has become a living library with profound value.Kashi’s work celebrates the strength, courage and resilience in the people he has witnessed. This book also acknowledges the toll this work has taken on him.

The book concludes with a reflective essay entitled 'Home,' where Kashi divulges a sense of isolation that comes from constantly traveling. He describes a life lived in between either home or a far-flung corner of the globe. Home, in the trusted definition of the word, is an anchor, a compass point, and for Kashi, that place is wherever his wife and kids are.

This event offers attendees the opportunity to connect with the photographer and delve deeper into the stories behind his January 6th portfolio, originally shot on assignment for Rolling Stone. He will also discuss his journey in self-publishing.

Copies of Gowdy's debut monograph, Insurrection, will be available after the presentation and Q&A.

Across America and throughout the world, photojournalists working to bring the world vital news have come under attack, often from authorities, governments, and groups using violence and repression as a form of censorship.

Without Sanctuary: Lynching Photography in America

Amnesty International Logo


Without Sanctuary: Lynching Photography in America
Date: Tue 28 June 2011

Without Sanctuary: Lynching Photography in America, is a visual testament to lynching as a form of social violence in the United States of America from 1880 to the 1960s. The photographs, postcards and memorabilia featured in the exhibition are shown in the UK for the first time. The images collectively reveal how deeply ingrained racist ideologies had become, to the extent that by the early 1900s, lynching was transformed into a major participatory form of entertainment and through photography into a space of commercial exchange and celebration.

Taken at various lynching events, the images of Without Sanctuary were not confined to any one period, place, or race and depict, in graphic detail, victims from a variety of backgrounds and characteristics: white, black, young, old, men, women, Jews and gentiles. However, most of the Americans lynched were African Americans: as many as 4,000 black men and women.

These photographs uncover a horrific American visual legacy, one that has often been left hidden, but which collector James Allen uncovered: ‘I believe the photographer was more than a perceptive spectator at lynchings. The photographic art played as significant a role in the ritual as torture or souvenir grabbing - a sort of two-dimensional biblical swine, a receptacle for a collective sinful self. Even dead, the victims were without sanctuary.’

Without Sanctuary serves as a stark reminder that freedom comes with a solemn responsibility on all citizens to treat others with dignity, respect and fairness. The exhibition bears witness to the victims, and to those whose individual and collective efforts helped end lynching, and serves as a reminder that there are still vulnerable populations today who need sanctuary from intimidation and oppression. Lynching is a distortion of human and civil rights, and so represents an assault on civilisation itself.

The Panel Includes:

Mark Sealy is the director of Autograph ABP and joint CEO of Rivington Place. He has a special interest in photography and its relationship to social change, identity politics and human rights. In his role as director of Autograph ABP he has initiated the production of well over 40 publications, produced exhibitions worldwide and commissioned photographers globally. He is a PhD candidate at Durham University, where his research focuses on photography and cultural violence.

Candace Allen is a screenwriter and political activist. She received her BA from Harvard University before attending the New York University School of Film and Television. She became the first African-American female member of the Directors Guild of America. In addition to writing screenplays, she has worked as assistant director since the 1970s. In 2004 she published her first novel, a fictionalized biography of jazz musician Valaida Snow.

Brett St. Louis is a Senior lecturer in the Department of Sociology at Goldsmiths, University of London. His research interests crystallise around: the conceptual and practical status of race.
