The exhibition (8 March–25 August 2019) features contemporary artists whose work in the realm of black individual and collective life resonates with Charles White’s profound and continuing influence.
A prolific painter, printmaker, muralist, draftsman, and photographer whose career spanned more than half a century, Charles White’s artistic portrayals of black subjects, life, and history were extensive and far-reaching.
The exhibition is presented as a companion to the LACMA exhibitions Charles White: A Retrospective and Life Model: Charles White and his Students.
