Can a portrait represent violence and healing at the same time? A photograph made by artist August Sander of Hermann Leubsdorf in 1938, in Cologne, Germany, suggests that it can.
Speaking in Pairs, on view Spring 2026 in a gallery endowed by the Leubsdorf family, looks at the aesthetic, material, social, and political layers that portraits offer—revealing how the people they portray, their makers and viewers, and the changing world they exist in connect and conflict in shifting cycles over time.
More than eighty contributors—artists, historians, lawyers, doctors, writers, curators, and more—come together for this exhibition, which presents works in a continually evolving installation and uses books, posters, and ephemera to visually illuminate the connections between vernacular photography and art, nobody and somebody, the personal and public. An array of viewpoints blurs the lines between artists, curators, and other subjects, and between non-fiction and fiction.

Full Moon, Walking / Opens March 6
Sweet Flypaper Gallery, Hunter College Department of Art and Art History is proud to present “Full Moon, Walking” a survey exhibition of Lauren Orchowski’s artwork spanning over twenty years, curated by Virginia Inés Vergara. Orchowski’s large format photo-based processes use lived experiences to conjure up otherworldly landscapes. Images of Cold War era rocket ship playgrounds, constructed throughout the United States, and photographed through cross country road trips, are displayed next to mural size nightscapes, mixing alternative photographic methods, painting, and sculpture to leave the viewer immersed in her sublime creations.
