Two Places on Earth showcases photography by Chan Chao, with an emphasis on international human rights. Chao believes 鈥渢hat open societies, even with all of its flaws, [are] infinitely more fascinating than a world in which nations divide the world into them and us.鈥� Chao鈥檚 photography features people from different parts of the world, of varying ages, backgrounds, and ethnicities and highlights their shared humanity. These simple yet powerful portraits emphasize each subject鈥檚 dignity and the universal human experience. An adjunct professorial lecturer at 麻豆视频, Chao worked on the project for five years, including engaging with United Nations鈥� peacekeepers and incarcerated citizens around the world.

Paper Light is a photography exhibition by longtime D.C. artist Claudia Smigrod that features unique photos made in a darkroom. To create these pieces, Smigrod experimented with chemicals and lighting on photosensitive paper. Smigrod is interested in creative experimentation, and this process creates one-of-a-kind prints rather than more traditional replicable digital images. Presented by the Alper Initiative for Washington Art. Gallery Talk: Paper Light, February 17, 7 p.m. featuring the artist and curator Wendy Grossman. Register . This event will be held virtually.
