Without Regard to Sex, Race or Color The Past, Present and Future of One Historically Black College: Burrison Gallery Exhibition	Print Issue
,

Without Regard to Sex, Race or Color The Past, Present and Future of One Historically Black College: Photographs by Andrew Feiler will be on display at the Burrison Gallery from September 7-30.

Founded by African Americans in 1881, Morris Brown College lost its accreditation to financial pressures and scandal in 2002. Today its campus is largely abandoned. Andrew Feiler was granted unique access to Morris Brown’s hauntingly silent campus. His documentary artistic photography portrays a proud past, a challenging present and an uncertain future, not only for this one institution but for all of America’s historically black colleges and universities.

An opening reception will be held in the Burrison Gallery from 5-6 p.m. on Thursday September 8, followed by a discussion between the artist and Professor Marybeth Gasman of Penn’s Graduate School of Education. Signed copies of the book will be available for purchase at the opening reception.
