DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the exhibition The Jewish Identity Project: New 
 American Photography, The Contemporary Jewish Museum (CJM) and the Museum 
 of the African Diaspora (MoAD) will present a lecture by Chicago-based 
 artist Dawoud Bey. One of the country's leading portrait artists, Bey will 
 discuss his ongoing exploration of adolescent identity through 
 portraiture.\n\nBey’s collaborative photographic and audio project in The 
 Jewish Identity Project features adolescents with Jewish backgrounds who 
 share their personal thoughts and feelings about their racial and religious 
 identity. Jacob is the son of a single Jewish mother; his father was from 
 Belize. Sahai and Zenebesh were adopted from Ethiopia and converted to 
 Judaism. Cousins Claire and Samantha share an Ojibwe (Chippewa) grandmother 
 and Russian Jewish grandfather. The voices of these teens provide a window 
 into their personalities and reveal their keen awareness of how they are 
 perceived by society. Bey’s works underscore the truism that one should 
 not make easy assumptions about another individual’s identity or 
 heritage.\n \nADMISSION: \nCJM and MoAD Members, FREE\nGeneral Admission,
