June 1, 2012 by Mariamma Kambon

The images entitled “Ebony hands on each ivory key” remained on view at the Studio Museum of Harlem from November 2011 to March 2012. It is now a part of the permanent collection of the museum. Postcards can be obtained by collectors by visiting the museum or contacting me.
