NEW YORK.- School of Visual Arts (SVA) presents “The American Dream: Migrant Workers in America Today,” an exhibition of black-and-white photographs made by Mark Paris and selected by celebrated photographer Mary Ellen Mark. Paris spent the past year on Long Island, where he grew up, documenting several communities of migrant workers and American nationals demonstrating against illegal aliens. Made in private as well as public settings, the resulting images put a human face on the national debate over immigration policy. (courtesy www.Artdaily.org)
