This event has ended.

Soho Photo Gallery presents October’s guest is photo-journalist Tequila Minsky whose exhibition is entitled Haiti = Survival (No question but). Minsky has traveled to Haiti more than 20 times since 1993 in connection with various journalism projects. Minsky had arrived in Port-au-Prince five hours before the earthquake struck on January 12, 2010, having just spent almost a week in the countryside with a delegation visiting a peasant farmer association. The rest, of course, is history, especially since Minsky’s images of the devastation were among the first to be published, on the NY Times blog – three hours after the quake -- and then in the Times’s morning edition. Her exhibition at Soho Photo includes images of the disaster, as it was unfolding, the immediate aftermath, and then Haiti six months later. Minsky has written various articles on women’s programs in Haiti and her exhibition, “Women of Haiti” was shown at the Brecht Forum. Her exhibition at Soho Photo is with the support of the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council (LMCC).
