Join acclaimed artist LaToya Ruby Frazier for her upcoming lecture Art as Transformation: Using Photography for Social Change on March 26, 2025. LaToya Ruby Frazier’s artistic practice spans a range of media, including photography, video, performance, installation art and books, and centers on the nexus of social justice, cultural change, and commentary on the American experience. In various interconnected bodies of work, Frazier uses collaborative storytelling with the people who appear in her artwork to address topics of industrialism, Rust Belt revitalization, environmental justice, access to healthcare, access to clean water, Workers’ Rights, Human Rights, family, and communal history. Frazier won a MacArthur Fellowship in 2015 and was included in TIME100’s Most Influential People of 2024.
