Congo in Harlem Exhibition

For the last two weeks, Louis Abelman and I have been working on curating a series of photographs to exhibit at the Congo in Harlem Festival. The exhibition is titled “North Kivu: Democratic Republic of Congo.” These photographs were taken by the filmmakers of the Goma Film Project during their visits to the Congo. The festival is going on at Maysles Cinema in Harlem from Thursday, October 1 to Saturday, October 24. The theatre is located at 343 Lenox Ave. between 127th and 128th St. You can call: 212-582-6050 or email: cinema@mayslesinstitute.org for more information. The exhibited prints are 11×14 Archival C-Prints (Editions 1 of 5) priced at $60/print and $100/framed. To order, contact: louisabelman@gmail.com Proceeds benefit Congo in Harlem and the Goma Film Project. Please click HERE for the film schedule and go see the exhibition.
