Carrie Mae Weems, one of 'The Greats'

Called "perhaps our best contemporary photographer, [someone who] creates work that insists on the worth of black women—both in art and in life," in this weekend's New York Times T Magazine ("The Greats" issue), Carrie Mae Weems is best known for her 1989-90 Kitchen Table Series. It "made her career," Megan O’Grady writes, "and inspired a new generation of artists who had never before seen a woman of color looking confidently out at them from a museum wall, and for whom Weems’s work represented the first time an African-American woman could be seen reflecting her own experience and interiority in her art."
