"Franco (the Great) Gaskin" The Place, Memory & Culture Incubator was fortunate to host Franco (the Great) Gaskin at the Spitzer School of Architecture!
The Harlem artist, known for his 125th street storefront gate paintings spanning decades, shares his work and legacy.
Franco was one of the community partners for the Place Memory & Culture Incubator during the Spring 2024 “Generative Harlem Histories” Studio coordinated by Professor and Co-Director of the PMCI Jerome Haferd alongside co-faculties Gerardo Ciprian, Nina Cooke John, nia Love, and Chat Travieso.
This lecture was moderated by the PMCI’s PI and Co-Director Jerome Haferd in conversation with Franco Gaskin and Community Engagement Specialist Anthony Carrión.
