Whiteness
exhibit to open its only East Coast showing
“Whiteness, A Wayward Construction” is
opening its only East Coast showing at the U.Va. Art Museum on
Oct. 23. It was installed at the Laguna Art Museum
in Laguna Beach, Calif., in 2003, and is the first of its kind in an American
museum. In the group exhibition, the artists explore their identity politics
in a cultural study of whiteness in the public imagination and in contemporary
art in the United States. The exhibition continues through Dec. 23 and includes
61 paintings, drawings, photography and installations by 24 artists.
