Harlem, Hollywood, Broadway: Celebrating Black History Month

Over the course of his half-century professional career, photographer Jack Mitchell documented a unique history of artists in the fields of dance, theatre, music, the fine arts, film, and television. Mitchell would have turned 100 years old this year. In recognition of the centennial of this creative and historically significant photographer, GME now offers a series of readymade exhibitions throughout 2025 that showcase Mitchell’s iconic photographs. This Black History Month, we present Harlem, Hollywood, Broadway: African American Legends, which features 36 silver gelatin and color photographs of noteworthy African-American artists and performers that Mitchell took over the span of his five-decade career.
