Phelan is a renowned feminist scholar whose work is foundational to the field of performance studies. Keller has curated exhibitions and written about a wide array of photographers, including Susan Meiselas, Clare Strand, and Francesca Woodman.
Person. Woman. Camera.

In the Screening Room, Gina Basso guest curates seen only, heard only through someone else's description, a related program of experimental short films that offer fresh visions of moving image portraiture and nonfiction explorations of community. Admission to McEvoy Arts is free.
