INTERVIEW
In this episode of Catalyst Radio we have in studio special guests who are part of the international Grandmother Power movement – grandmother and grand-‘others’ that are working for social change.
The contingent recently visited Grand Rapids as part of Grand Rapids Public Museum’s Grandmother Power – A Global Phenomenon exhibit on display through Feb. 2.
In a previous Catalyst Radio, we featured the actual exhibition, and its focus.
This time we talk to the artist, and to some of the people who inspired her and are subjects in the project.
The exhibition focuses on the work of photojournalist Paola Gianturco who has worked for the past 16 years documenting women’s lives and struggles in more than 50 countries.
Gianturco joins us in studio today, along with a contingent of the activist grandmothers and other movement working for a better future.
Here from Barre, Ontario, and featured in Gianturco’s work are: JoAnne O’Shea, Catherine Dougherty, Kathy Dunn and Mike O’Shea.
The Grandmother Power - A Global Phenomenon exhibit was previously featured on Catalyst radio Sept. 30.
