Before transitioning to street-facing exhibitions, we welcomed more than 9,000 visitors at the museum, with close to 250 people in attendance for the January opening of A Choice of Weapons, Honor and Dignity: The Visions of Gordon Parks and Jamel Shabazz. Were you there that night? The room was electric, and the energy was positive, soul-filling, and bright. When looking toward the future of the M, we imagine more nights like that one. At a time when nothing feels familiar, the M has found ways to continue providing our beloved community with meaningful art and We closed our doors mid-March due to COVID-19 and began conversation.

And successful we have been! Close to 1,000 viewers have Will you join us? watched Black Art in the Era of Protest, people continue to engage PEOPLE By Mia Laufer, Associate Curator When I first heard the M would be putting on A Choice of Weapons, Honor and Dignity: the Visions of Gordon Parks and Jamel Shabazz, I was ecstatic. I already knew Gordon Parks’s story well, and was thrilled to be engaging more with his legendary work. I didn’t know Robin Hickman-Winfield, Gordon Parks’s grand-niece, though. She was a board member at the M, and would be curating the show. A minute into our first meeting I learned she was far more than that. Robin is a figure of towering strength, and I knew then that the M’s upcoming exhibition wouldn’t be just another Gordon Parks show. Robin is deeply knowledgeable about Parks’s career, and equally passionate about her uncle’s legacy. In one of their last conversations before Parks passed away in 2006, the photographer asked her, “What’s going to happen to Black boys? What did I really do?” And with that, Robin had her marching orders; she promised to keep his legacy alive. Following her lead, the M put on a Gordon Parks exhibition like no other. Instead of traditional interpretation of the artworks on the walls, there was a chorus of voices from the Black community, quotes from Parks and Shabazz, reflections by Gordon Parks High School Scholars, and even an opening statement by St. Paul’s mayor, Melvin Carter. In the museum’s Window Gallery that is visible from Robert Street she placed larger-than-life portraits of Parks and Shabazz, because she wanted everyone to be able to see examples of Black men carrying themselves with dignity, including the homeless population downtown. She brought the Gordon Parks Scholars to the museum to help plan the layout of the show, encouraging them to take their rightful place in public institutions. They became her Assistant Curators for the project. Robin calls herself a promise-keeper. I became a promise-keeper too. There’s a profound generosity in the way Robin works. I’m a Jewish, Nuyorican, recent transplant from the East Coast, but Robin opened her arms to me and offered me a place in her vision of a brighter future. I was humbled to be involved in this project. It was truly an honor. Use your voice to fight for what’s right to make a difference. —Amelia Pharmer, Gordon Parks Scholar Donors The Board of Trustees and staff of the M are grateful to these individuals, corporations, and foundations. This list reflects gifts received between July 1, 2019, and June 30, 2020. This year we have opted to list all of our supporters in alphabetical order, because we believe that every gift is significant, and all acts of generosity help support the work we do at the M.

  • What Art Defined the Civil Rights Era? We Asked 7 Museum Curators to Pick One Work That Crystallized the Moment
    Art World What Art Defined the Civil Rights Era? We Asked 7 Museum Curators to Pick One Work That Crystallized the Moment Curators from across the country share the works that capture the ethos of the era. Katie White (https://news.artnet.com/about/katie-white-1066), January 20, 2020 Gordon Parks, Department Store (1956). Courtesy of and copyright The Gordon Parks Foundation. In honor of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we tasked curators across the country with the difficult task of choosing a single work of art that they feel defines the ethos of the Civil Rights Era. Their choices present a kaleidoscopic and occasionally surprising group of works that span continents and centuries—from iconic photographs to ritual sculptural objects. See the works and read the curators’ insights below. Joe Minter’s Children In Jail (2013) Joe Minter, Children In Jail (2013). Courtesy of Souls Grown Deep. This contemporary work by Joe Minter reflects back on Birmingham, Alabama’s Children’s Crusade: On May 2, 1963, more than 1,000 students skipped school and took to the streets from the doors of the 16th Street Baptist Church, and for days faced police violence and dog attacks, brutal sprays of fire hoses, and mass arrests. Ultimately, more than 3,000 children took part in the direct actions. More than 500 children were jailed by Alabama Public Safety Commissioner Bull Connor, including 75 kids crammed into a cell meant for eight adults, and still others locked into animal pens at the fairgrounds for days on end. Thanks to their sacrifices and the widespread media images of brutalized black children, President Kennedy took notice, the city negotiated with Martin Luther King Jr., jailed demonstrators were freed, and Connor lost his job.

  • What Gordon Parks Witnessed
    What Gordon Parks Witnessed The injustices of Jim Crow and the evolution of a great American photographer Tenement residents in Chicago in 1950. (Courtesy of and © the Gordon Parks Foundation) Story by David Rowell DECEMBER 3, 2018 Photos by Gordon Parks When 29-year-old Gordon Parks arrived in Washington, in 1942, to begin his prestigious job as a photographer at the Farm Security Administration, his first assignment was to shoot: nothing. The government agency, which was born of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal, had originally intended to highlight rural suffering and the plight of farmers, but that mission quickly expanded to producing a vast visual record of American life. Overseen by Roy Stryker, chief of the photography unit within the agency’s historical section, the collection was a stunning, often sobering artistic vehicle for depicting the ways the government was both serving and failing its citizens. Parks had come to the FSA on a fellowship after being a staff photographer for the St. Paul Recorder newspaper and doing commercial freelance work, but he also hadn’t bought his first camera until 1937, and Stryker knew the photographer still had much to learn. First, as Parks recounted in his 1966 memoir “A Choice of Weapons,” Stryker had Parks show him his cameras — a Speed Graphic and a Rolleiflex — and promptly locked them in a cabinet. “You won’t be needing those for a few days,” the boss said. Instead, he asked his new photographer — who was raised in Kansas but also lived in Minnesota and later in Chicago — to eat in some restaurants, shop in stores, take in a movie.

Influenced by the writings of the educator Booker T. Washington, this Jewish philanthropist joined forces with African American communities during the Jim Crow South to build over 5,300 schools during the early part of the 20th century. Inspired by the Jewish ideals of tzedakah (charity) and tikkun olam (repairing the world), and a deep concern over racial inequality in America, Julius Rosenwald used his wealth to become one of America’s most effective philanthropists. Because of his modesty, Rosenwald’s philanthropy and social activism are not well known today. He gave away $62million in his lifetime.

  • Gordon Parks in Retrospect: Photographer, Writer, Filmmaker, Composer …
    Gordon Parks in Retrospect: Photographer, Writer, Filmmaker, Composer …. Harlem, NY 1948 (photo by Gordon Parks). Gordon Parks Gordon Parks (1912-2006) was one of the seminal figures of twentieth century photography. A humanitarian with a deep commitment to social justice, he left behind a body of work that documents many of the most important aspects of culture in America from the early 1940s up until his death in 2006, with a focus on race relations, poverty, civil rights, and urban life. In addition, Parks was also a celebrated composer, author, and filmmaker who interacted with many of the most prominent people of his era - from politicians and artists to celebrities and athletes. 459 Africology: The Journal of Pan African Studies, vol.9, no.10, December 2016 Gordon Parks Collection at Wichita State University In 2014 the Ulrich Museum at Wichita State University in Kansas acquired a collection of fine art photographs taken by Kansas-born artist Gordon Parks (Wichita State University earlier obtained a large collection of papers, letters, documents, and manuscripts that belong to Parks). A native of Fort Scott, Kansas, Parks, the youngest of 15 children, spent his formative years in the Minneapolis area. As a young teen he left home and got a job playing piano at a brothel. He later worked as a waiter and a Pullman porter. On one train trip he bought a small camera for $12.50 and soon began doing fashion photography shoots for a chic Minneapolis boutique. After World War II, he moved to New York and he began a long career as a magazine photographer.
