"Martin Luther King Jr.: Life, Times and
Legacy"
Presented
by:
The Amistad Center for Art and Culture
at Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art. |
|
The
exhibit explores the social issues of the civil rights era and
recognizes King's contribution by examining the art that was
created in response to the political and cultural pressures and
opportunities of the late 1950s and 1960s.
King's legacy is examined through contemporary works that explore
the themes of race and injustice in America. These works ask
visitors to compare and contrast the climate of today with the
that of King's lifetime and asses the progress of a people and a
nation.
Museum hours: Wed-Fri, 11 a.m.-5 p.m.; Sat and Sun, 10
a.m.-5 p.m. Open until 8 p.m. First Thursday of the month.
