"Meet the Artist" with Nina Berman

On Thursday, May 1, we welcome Nina Berman to “Meet the Artist” night at CPW. Nina will present work from her career and recent images around campus protest and the free speech crackdown at Columbia University.

Join us every Thursday evening at CPW, when we host illuminating talks with local and visiting artists. “Meet the Artist” allows the public to get to know new work, to hear about artistic processes, and to meet friends and other local artists. The evening takes place at CPW’s gallery at 25 Dederick Street in Kingston, NY. It is free and open to the public. Coffee, tea, and snacks are served. “Meet the Artist” is made possible by a generous grant from the Arnold and Augusta Newman Foundation.

Nina Berman is a documentary photographer, filmmaker, journalist and educator. Her work explores American politics, war and militarism, environmental issues and post violence trauma. She is the author of three books, Purple Hearts - Back from Iraq, Homeland and An autobiography of Miss Wish. Her work is in the permanent collections of the Smithsonian National Museum of American History, the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, the Museum of the City of New York, and the Bibliothèque nationale de France among others. She is a professor at Columbia University.
