This is the first retrospective exhibition of renowned photographer Anthony Barboza (b. 1944).

A New Bedford native of Cape Verdean descent, Anthony Barboza has, throughout his influential career, demonstrated a deep compassion for and interest in telling the stories of Black American life and communities of color worldwide.

Barboza’s photographs resonate with beauty and grace. I Return With a Feeling of Us brings together a wide range of his personal and commercial work—including deeply felt observations of racial injustice and economic inequities, innovative fashion photography that helped redefine African-American aesthetics and representation, and masterful, revelatory portraits of celebrities and fellow creatives for which he is best known.
