Description

In the sketches, paper murals, and projections of Kara Walker, precisely drawn figures interact in highly animated dramas that call into question the viewers relationship to the heavy-hitting issues of contemporary American social politics: race, gender, sexuality, and our national history of slavery. Join Walker and Philippe Vergne for a conversation on Walkers work and the contemporary portrayal of the Negress."

An installation of Walkers drawings, paper murals, and animation is on view in the exhibition Quartet: Barney, Gober, Levine, Walker in the Friedman Gallery.
