Sarah Huny Young is a photographer and visual artist primarily documenting Black women and LGBTQ and marginalized communities.
Huny’s work has been featured in the New York Times, ESPN and New York Magazine. She was awarded the Advancing Black Arts in Pittsburgh grant in 2016 and 2020 to execute her series “American Woman”, a documentary and portrait series about Black American women.
Sarah Huny Young joins Petra Floyd, artist educator at The Warhol, for a critical conversation exploring Andy Warhol's Polaroid photographs of Jean-Michel Basquiat, the groundbreaking young painter who became a close friend and collaborator to Warhol in the 1980s. Their conversation explores the complex relationship between Warhol and Basquiat, representations of the Black body, and the notion of truth-telling in art and artifacts.
