Publisher & Exhibition Partnership
Act One is published by Other Side Editions in partnership with Queensborough Community College Art Gallery.
Together, the publication and exhibition bring photography, scholarship, and public engagement into dialogue around the defining realities of the 21st century.
A Shared Commitment to Public Dialogue
Act One was developed through a collaboration between artists, scholars, curators, and educational institutions committed to examining the social, political, and cultural realities shaping contemporary life.
By combining publishing, exhibition, and academic engagement, the project creates space for reflection across disciplines and audiences.
