    The first major American exhibition in over a decade to examine current African photography, Snap Judgments presents a panoramic selection of over 200 works by 35 artists from a dozen African Countries. Embracing a variety of media, ranging from small and intimate photographs to expansive multi-media installations, the exhibition features an array of highly individual artistic responses to the enormous economic, social, and cultural changes now taking place throughout Africa. Organized by Okwui Enwezor--one of the world's foremost curators of contemporary art--Snap Judgments offers a fresh and compelling look at Africa. Organized by the International Center of Photography with lead support from Altria Group, Inc., and the ICP Exhibitions Committee. Presenting Sponsor: AutoZone Exhibition Sponsors: The First Tennessee Bravo Series and The Dupree Family Foundation Family Day Sponsors: The Macy's Foundation and The International Paper Foundation
