In 2013, Adamson Gallery mounted a retrospective of work by the late photographer Gordon Parks. Now, the gallery zeroes in on one of Parks’ documentary projects that elevated the previous exhibit, a Life magazine assignment to photograph ordinary African-American residents living in Jim Crow-era Mobile, Ala.
