Push Factors: Perspectives on Guatemalan Migration
When: Tuesdays-Sundays. Continues through Feb. 24 2019
Through its current exhibition, the University of Idaho’s Prichard Art Gallery seeks to elicit compassion toward the plight of Guatemalan refugees abandoning everything in search of a better life. Push Factors, organized by Curators Without Borders, features the work of award-winning photographers and photojournalists Rodrigo Abd, James Rodríguez and William B. Plowman, as well as written accounts from Guatemalan migrant youth. In a statement for the show, gallery director Richard Rowley writes: “Being responsive to a rapidly changing world and meeting important issues of the day has long been a hallmark of our gallery. Push Factors helps bring depth and understanding to people simply seeking a better life.”
