ERNEST WITHERS: A BUCK & A HALF APIECE

Memphis Brooks Museum of Art / 1934 Poplar Ave. September 1, 2018 - March 1, 2019

Ernest Withers

Much of Memphis spent the 50th anniversary of the Sanitation Strike revisiting Ernest C. Withers’ Civil Rights photographs. Now the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art, 1934 Poplar Avenue, is examining his music photographs with A Buck and a Half Apiece, which features his portraits of Booker T. Jones, Willie Mitchell and other Memphis music heroes in their heyday. A Buck and a Half Apiece is now open and runs through March 2019.
