Jack Whitten made his sculpture privately in Greece—even after he became one of the most important artists of his generation. For the first time ever, these revelatory works will be on view in Odyssey: Jack Whitten Sculpture, 1963–2017, organized by The Baltimore Museum of Art and The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
At center of this exhibition, the monumental installation Birth of a Nation (2014) represents a black woman nursing a white infant against the backdrop of the first official flag of the United States. Suspended above a mound of earth, the quilt is surrounded by Towns’s Story Quilts (2016–2018), a cycle of seven works in luminous fabrics and glass beads that narrate the life of Nat Turner and the 1831 rebellion he led against slavery.
In collaboration with the Johns Hopkins University’s Center for Advanced Media Studies, the BMA presents two films by MacArthur Award-winner Mary Reid Kelley and her collaborator Patrick Kelley.
More than a dozen turn-of-the-century prints and posters celebrate the varied styles of the international Art Nouveau movement and the generosity of the late Baltimore philanthropist LeRoy E. Hoffberger.
