The Family Of No Man - Time Capsule

The Family of No Man is one of the main curatorial events at Arles Cosmos 2018. It consists of an open call to female and inter-gender artists working in the medium of photography. The call results in a series of outdoor & indoor installations and activities that take place during the six days of the fair. The aim of the radical curatorial proposition is to revisit Edward Steichen's original Family of Man exhibition (1955), which, in its time, was described "as one of the most ambitious undertakings in an art museum". The Family of No Man will seek to replace the visual register of white male dominance inherent in the original project with an inclusive visual platform of how the world is seen today through non-male eyes.
