About the Exhibition:
Bill Bamberger: Boys Will Be Men presents introspective portraits of current and former male high school students from the
Durham School of the Arts (DSA) by distinguished Durham-based photographer and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill alumnus Bill Bamberger (American, born 1956). Bamberger’s images explore the diversity of American masculinity exhibited by contemporary youth facing adulthood. They are accompanied by the students’ audio reflections on the expectations and experiences of coming of age.
This exhibition is made possible by support from the late Barbara C. Newborg, M.D. and Karen and Chuck Lovelace. Additional support has been provided by Mimi Hock and Amir and Anna Barzin.
