July 2, 2016 - February 19, 2017 - Witness begins with a prelude: photographs from the 1940s by Walker Evans that covertly capture subway riders looking around at their fellow commuters. It culminates with a major installation by Alfredo Jaar from 2006, The Sound of Silence, which surveys the life of photojournalist Kevin Carter and the repercussions of a single prize-winning photograph he took in Sudan. In between, the exhibition presents photographic works from the 1960s through the 2000s by artists such as Dawoud Bey, Christian Boltanksi, Sophie Calle, Larry Clark, Sharon Lockhart, Kerry James Marshall, Andres Serrano, Cindy Sherman, and Carrie Mae Weems.
