The Arthur Ross Gallery at the University of Pennsylvania presents Children of Abraham, an exhibition of 66 black and white photographs of the monotheistic religions , Judaism, Islam, and Christianity by Magnum photographer Abbas. The exhibition is open to the public.
Since 1978 Abbas has documented through his camera lens the “political and social life of societies in conflict.”
This exhibition is the culmination of over 16 years of research and travel by the artist to record religious practices and their manifestations in all parts of the world.
This is the artist’s’ first exhibition in America exclusively devoted to the theme of religion.
