Gordon Parks (1912–2006)

“I saw that the camera could be a weapon against poverty, against racism, against all sorts of social wrongs. I knew at that point I had to have a camera.” – Gordon Parks

One of the greatest photographers of the twentieth century, Gordon Parks used his camera “as a weapon of choice” to shine a light on his experiences growing up Black in segregated America. Born in segregated Fort Scott, Kansas in 1912, Parks bought his first camera at a pawnshop in Seattle and taught himself how to use it. He then moved onto working for the Farm Security Administration (FSA), Office of War information (OWI), and for Life magazine in 1949 as the first African American staff photographer.

Parks created an exceptional body of work that documents American life and culture from the early 1940s into the 2000s, with a focus on the social and economic impact of poverty, racism, and other forms of discrimination.

This publication entitled “Gordon Parks : the new tide, early work, 1940-1950“ brings together photographs and publications made during the first and most formative decade of his 65-year career. During the 1940s Parks' photographic ambitions grew to express a profound understanding of his social, cultural and political experiences. From the first photographs he published in Saint Paul, Minnesota, and his relationship to the Chicago Black Renaissance, to his mentorship with Roy Stryker and his breakthrough work for America's influential picture magazines - including "Ebony" and "Life" - this book traces Parks' rapid evolution from an accomplished, self-taught practitioner to a groundbreaking artistic and journalistic voice. (from the publisher’s note)
