Alumnus Myles Little

BFA Photography Alumnus Myles Little has curated an exhibition about wealth inequality. The exhibition will be traveling to five countries. It features images by photographers such as Christopher Anderson, Nina Berman and David Chancellor, and essays by Joseph Stiglitz and Geoff Dyer. Each of these shows is fully funded and ready to go.

Recently, the publisher Hatje Cantz has offered to make a book with the work. But, as is often the case with publishing these days, I’ll need to contribute part of the funding to cover production costs. A Kickstarter campaign has been launched to help to successfully publish the book of the work from the exhibition. Please consider supporting this worthy cause.

"My heart now suffers because of a government that does not know what love is."


On July 4th, Univision TV journalist Victor J. Solano will interview SCAD elearning MFA candidate and Cuban-American,Alina Bliach to discuss her exhibition and book project "A Voyage of Many."

The segment will appear during Aca Entre Nos, during the 11 o'clock pm news program Noticias 41. After the fireworks, tune in and celebrate the work of a fellow SCAD student and the resilient people she photographed.
