Synopsis
The images from Myra Greene's series initially read as benign portraits of a cross section of white American life, yet the impetus for their creation lies in an undercurrent of racial description. By photographing friends, peers, and mentors, Greene visually ponders if photography can capture and describe the nuances of whiteness.

Broschur / Softcover. 1. Aufl. Mit My White Friends erweitert Myra Greene ihre seit zehn Jahren andauernde Erforschung der Darstellung von Rasse in der Fotografie. Greenes Aufnahmen aus dem Leben weißer Amerikaner wirken zunächst vollkommen harmlos. Hinter ihren Bildern aber lauert die Frage, wie die Fotografie rassische Eigenschaften unterschwellig abbildet. In Porträts von Freunden, Kollegen und Vertrauten denkt Greene visuell darüber nach, ob das Medium die Nuancen des Weißseins erfassen und wiedergeben kann. Deuten Geste und Umgebung auf eine gelebte Wahrheit, eine Verstellung oder ein Klischee hin, das die Fotografin womöglich selbst beschwört? Diese Fotografien bieten Beschreibungen an, keine Lösungen. Das Publikum ist gefordert, die verschlüsselten Informationen zu analysieren, und wird dabei mit seinen eigenen Ideen von Rasse konfrontiert.
