The creativity machine keeps on churning over at The McNay Art Museum. The institution is pushing out yet another fall exhibition called “Whitfield Lovell: Passages” on display from Wednesday, Oct. 23 to Sunday, Jan. 19 in the Tobin Exhibition Galleries.
This traveling show is the most comprehensive exhibition of the contemporary artist to date, and The McNay is the final stop on its national tour.
About the artist
Whitfield Lovell is a 2007 MacArthur Fellowship recipient, who creates drawings inspired by photographs of unidentified African Americans taken between the Emancipation Proclamation and the Civil Rights Movement.
The exhibition
Presented by the American Federation of Arts, the expertly curated works focuses on aspects of African American history while raising questions about identity, memory, and America’s collective heritage. Museumgoers can expect to see approximately 30 additional works and two immersive installations titled “Deep River” (2013) and “Visitation: The Richmond Project” (2001).
