"Looking Both Ways: Art of the Contemporary African Diaspora."

This traveling exhibition examines the relationships among shifting physical contexts, emotional geographies, ambition and freedom of expression while focusing on the increasing globalization of the African Diaspora. "Looking Both Ways" showcases work by twelve artists from Africa who currently live and work in Western countries, including Belgium, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Portugal, the United Kingdom and the United States. The exhibition presents a wide array of styles and media, ranging from video through painting, photography, sculpture, installation art, collage, and performance art to works on paper. The exhibition is curated by Laurie Ann Farrell, Curator at the Museum for African Art in Long Island City, New York.
