In the Tower: Kerry James Marshall
Where: National Gallery of Art
A new exhibition opened at the National Gallery of Art a few days ago: the thought-provoking paintings by American Kerry James Marshall (his first exhibition on Washington). The exhibition will be up until December 7, 2013.
From
NGA:
The dominant theme of these works is the transport of African slaves to America in the Middle Passage...Marshall’s works explore the economic, sociological, and psychological aftermath of this foundational episode of US history. In his art, the past is never truly past: history exerts a constant, often unconscious pressure on the living.
Open July 4
