He uses objects he finds at thrift stores, flea markets, garage sales, and the like to create elaborate and decorative works of art that are sometimes beautiful and sometimes troubling. End Upheld has both of these qualities. The sculpture includes a racist image of a male figure of African descent. The object may have once served as a pedestal or a stool. Now it is elevated, sitting atop a stool of its own. Raised to new heights, the figure supports a striking and complex latticework of birds, beads, flowers, stylized lamps, and other ornaments. The title of the sculpture, End Upheld, is a play on words. Just as the figure may have once been a stool for someone to sit on, in this new context it is supporting a world of beauty and light. Through the process of making art, Cave has transformed an object representing a painful, oppressive past into a source of hope and transcendence.

Lawrence’s parents themselves moved to the North in this exodus known as the Great Migration, which took place from the 1910s through the 1970s.

Since that time Gilliam has gone on to create work in an astounding variety of styles while always remaining true to a fundamental disregard for the boundaries that have traditionally separated painting, sculpture, and architecture. In the early 1990s Gilliam adopted birch plywood as a support surface for his paintings, a practice he continues to the present day. In these works Gilliam achieves an architectural physicality by using overtly sculptural material—wood and its relief properties. The surface of Fishing Well is poured acrylic paint. The images, textures, and suggestion of depth derive from the way the artist pushed and pulled the acrylic paint across the wood surface.

While Woodruff did not win the competition, his mural study is a dramatic reminder of the alliance of two of America's most courageous leaders, Lincoln and Douglass, during a period that threatened to destroy the American union. While Douglass never, in reality, met with Lincoln's cabinet, he did meet with Lincoln and repeatedly urged the president to issue the Emancipation Proclamation. Woodruff stressed the significance of Douglass's role by appropriating the historical image engraved by Ritchie and adding an animated Douglass and the colorful American flag.

Simpson's goal is to make the viewer think and reflect - about race, about class, about gender. Untitled (the failure of Sylvester) seems at first glance to be a random grouping of words and images. A closer look reveals that the photographs depict a woman whose face we never quite see - in four of the images, her face is deliberately obscured. Does this suggest that the African-American woman is not actually seen, and is invisible in American culture? What is the meaning of the text? Like the images, the texts are allusions to mainstream perceptions of the African-American. The Failure of Sylvester is the title of a painting by the Ashcan artist Robert Henri. Sylvester, a young African-American and the artist's model for the painting, has fallen asleep - has 'failed' as a model.

This is a portrait sculpture of Harriet Tubman, the heroic woman who escaped from slavery and yet returned to the South between 1849 and 1860 to lead over seventy slaves to freedom. In later years, she worked alongside Susan B. Anthony to advance women’s right to vote. Artist Alison Saar was commissioned to create a public sculpture of Tubman for a park at 122nd Street in New York City. MAG’s work is a maquette, or a smaller version. Saar represented Harriet Tubman as a person of great determination and strength, and positioned her as an oncoming train because of her reputation as “the Moses of the Underground Railroad”. Even her petticoat resembles a train’s cowcatcher, pushing aside all obstacles in its path. Roots signify Tubman’s efforts to uproot slavery, and the uprootedness of the slaves who had to leave everything behind. “Swing Low” is a Negro spiritual said to be one of Tubman’s favorites.

Memling created sensitive, quiet portraits of the growing merchant class of his time set within landscapes and cast in natural light. Here, Wiley blends Memling’s style with contemporary street culture in a way that elevates and immortalizes his modern sitter, a resident of Brooklyn, Rafton Glean (his name is painted on the doors of the frame). Wiley has explained, “I try to use the black body in my work to counter the absence of that body in museum spaces throughout the world.” In 2018, the artist was chosen by President Barack Obama to paint his official portrait (right), now in the collection of the National Portrait Gallery. At the unveiling, the President commended Wiley for his ability to show “the beauty and the grace and the dignity” of black people.

By the mid-1980s he was transitioning to painting on canvas. Daze’s pictures capture the grit and energy of the city he loves. The 7 Yard features the artist’s iconic graffiti markings in acrylic, the soft impression of a young woman’s face rendered in spray-paint, and a hyper-detailed depiction of a train yard in oil paint, which is remarkably similar to the train yard near MAG here in Rochester. Rochester’s WALL\THERAPY project sponsored four large-scale exterior murals by Daze. Visit www.wall-therapy.com for more information.

So, for example, I think you could use this credit line when at Yale, the Royal Academy, the Scottish National Portrait Gallery, LACMA, etc. Commissioned by the Memorial Art Gallery of the University of Rochester with the partnership of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and with generous support from Mark Falcone and Ellen Bruss, the Zell Family, Ford Foundation, VIA Art Fund, Lori Van Dusen, and Deborah Ronnen and Sherman Levey. Such credit could also be added to photo credit captions for images related to the commission. For example: Isaac Julien, “Lessons of The Hour” (Lessons of The Hour), 2019 matte archival paper mounted on aluminum, 63 x 84 inches. Commissioned by The Memorial Art Gallery of the University of Rochester.  (all images © Isaac Julien and courtesy the artist and Metro Pictures, New York unless otherwise noted) [I grabbed this caption from the Hyperallergic article online] What do you think? The full credit line is the following, but this is obviously way too much: Commissioned and acquired by the Memorial Art Gallery with the partnership of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, and with generous support from Mark Falcone and Ellen Bruss, the Zell Family, Ford Foundation, VIA Art Fund, Lori Van Dusen, and Deborah Ronnen and Sherman Levey.
