Thanks James! Exhibit: Trapped in the Middle Date: Mon - Thu, Apr 1 to Apr 25, 7:00am - 10:00pm Location: Friends of Japan Gallery, South Concourse, at Harvard CGIS, 1730 Cambridge Street, Cambridge, MA 02138 The Harvard Center for Government and International Studies (CGIS) is pleased to announce its April exhibit Trapped in the Middle: The Effect of Income Inequality on the Middle Class in America. Location: Friends of Japan Gallery, South Concourse, at Harvard CGIS, 1730 Cambridge Street, Cambridge, MA 02138 from April 1, 2019 to April 25, 2019. Hours: 7 AM – 10 PM, Monday – Friday. Co-sponsored by the Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics and Public Policy and the Malcolm Weiner Center for Social Policy at the Harvard Kennedy School. The photographs by Julian Fisher examine of the effects of income inequality in this country on the middle class in its present state of distress. Each of the metaphorical photographs conveys one or more of the conditions and challenges (housing, transportation, education, healthcare) currently confronting 85% of Americans living with incomes that have not measurably increased since 1980. Through his images, interviews and graphics drawing on current research, Fisher seeks to promote public discussion of the causes, costs, and possible ways of addressing these complex issues. Fisher studied photography at Yale with Walker Evans. His photographs have appeared in the New York Times, Time, Newsweek, Life, and The Atlantic. He subsequently pursued a medical degree and is a neurologist on the Harvard medical faculty, at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Boston. He has returned to photojournalism for this project and is committed, as he says, to the “tradition of photographers putting a face to a problem” in an effort to see clearly and improve the situation.
