Hyde Cabinet #3: From Brothel to Museum looks at a photograph of an at-ease New Orleans prostitute taken by E. J. Bellocq in 1912. This display will engage with the complexities and tensions of documentation, exhibition, and presentation of the body.
The Hyde Cabinet, named in honor of Megan Hyde, former Tang Educator for College and Public Programs and Curatorial Assistant (2008–2016), is an exhibition case curated by members of the Tang’s Student Advisory Council.
