Join Joanna Pinsky of Art Encounter for guided tours and interactive discussion at two stimulating museum exhibitions this winter! On February 26, we will be visiting the Art Institute of Chicago to explore their latest major exhibition, Project a Black Planet: The Art and Culture of Panafrica.
Don’t miss this exclusive opportunity to experience the Art Institute’s latest major exhibition on a special private tour! We will be visiting the museum while it is closed to visitors to view and discuss a show that has been five years in the making. Project a Black Planet is the first major exhibition to survey the art and culture of Pan-Africanism through more than 350 objects, including painting, sculpture, installation art, film, and sound. We’ll first meet with a Director from the Art Institute who will share the behind-the scenes evolution of this exhibition as well as the ideas and concepts of Pan-Africanism, then we'll discuss works made by artists of the African diaspora across four continents, spanning from the 1920s to the present. This special session is limited to 20 participants.
