Join us as we view the groundbreaking exhibition 'The Harlem Renaissance and Transatlantic Modernism', which explores the comprehensive and far-reaching ways in which Black artists portrayed everyday modern life.
The exhibit showcases 160 works of painting, sculpture, photography, film, and ephemera, through which the viewer can explore the new Black cities that took shape in the 1920s–40s in New York City’s Harlem and nationwide in the early decades of the Great Migration, when millions of African Americans began to move away from the segregated rural South.
The exhibition establishes the Harlem Renaissance and its radically new development of the modern Black subject as central to the development of international modern art.
*Admission is pay what you wish for NY residents and NY, NJ, and CT students*
