Noel W. Anderson: Heavy is the Crown at Telfair Museums I 1 Oct, 2021 – 17 Jan, 2022

Noel W Anderson: Heavy is the Crown considers Black experience and its legacies between the temporal brackets of two “kings”–1963 when Martin Luther King Jr. presented his iconic “I Have a Dream” speech and 1992, the brutal beating of Rodney King and his subsequent plea “Can we all just get along…?” The printed works, tapestries, and paperworks on view in the exhibition utilize found imagery from various media and archives that are reprocessed by Anderson through assorted means of distortion and manipulation to collectively expose the haunting relationship of black masculine (mis)representation to structures of power.

On view from October 1st, 2021 until January 17, 2022
