Children of the Streets: Reminiscences of Jan Yoors - An exhibit opening

Please join us for a virtual viewing, Q&A, and discussion of Children of the Streets: Reminiscences of Jan Yoors with curators Dara Bram & Catherine Ryan, Yoors Family Partnership director Kore Yoors, and artist Jason Francisco on Friday, December 17, 2021 from 5-6pm CST.

The exhibit weaves together two significant periods of the life of Belgian artist Jan Yoors’ life: visual art documenting New York City street life and writings on his own childhood memories of first encounters with European Roma communities. Jan’s images simultaneously reflect upon an historic moment and stimulate an inquiry of the present. Visit the digital exhibit at https://exhibits.tulane.edu/exhibit/janyoors/.
