Currently on view at The Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens in Jacksonville, Florida is
Histories in Africa: 20
Years of Photography by Elizabeth Gilbert, an exhibition showcasing more than fifty black and
white photographs documenting Gilbert’s twenty-year journey across the African continent. During this remarkable expedition, Gilbert's aim was to capture a land in flux, one in which
traditional cultures and customs were rapidly disappearing. Her hope was
to “distill the subjects in a timeless record, and preserve the memory
of a lost era long after globalization has eroded it forever.”
