グッゲンハイム美術館さんのインスタグラム写真 - (グッゲンハイム美術館Instagram)「The Guggenheim was founded on a belief in the transformative power of art. Throughout history artists have responded in times of political and social crisis, to make visible a collective trauma, to confront uncomfortable questions, and to examine blind spots. Although the museum is temporarily closed, for our community, our staff, members, visitors, and followers, we want you to know we are listening, we are grieving with you, and we support collective action in calling for social justice. @DawoudBey’s “Birmingham Project” (2012) responds to the 1963 bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama, in which four African American girls were killed and two African American boys were killed in its violent aftermath. Each diptych in the series features a portrait of a young subject who is the same age as one of the victims of the 1963 killings, paired with the picture of an adult at the age that the victim would have been in 2012. The juxtaposition of these portraits both collapses and expands time, evoking the lives denied by past violence, and suggesting the extent to which social attitudes toward race have—and have not—changed during the past 50 years. __ Artwork: Dawoud Bey, “Wallace Simmons and Eric Allums” (2012). © Dawoud Bey # BlackLivesMatter #DawoudBey」6月2日 1時50分
