Gallery Talk

Artist Imo Nse Imeh joins guests in the South Gallery to discuss his exhibit on display through April 7. Free and open to the public. As a response to and revision of a 1907 children's book, artist Imo Imeh's series of drawings features contemporary black girls in various states of danger, in the present-day. With each drawing, he seeks to examine the language, history and realities of ongoing racial subjugation in America, the invisibility of young black people and the misfortune of how we collectively decide the degree to which we ought to place value on the lives of black children.
