Hank Willis Thomas: LOVERules, From the Collections of Jordan D. Schnitzer and His Family Foundation

February 24 - July 21

This exhibition of 90+ works, drawn from the collection of the Jordan D. Schnitzer Family Foundation, spans over 20 years of Thomas’s work. While not intended as a comprehensive survey, it touches on the breadth of his most significant practices, through the presentation of key series and individual works. The artworks in LOVERules include photography, print, mixed-media wall works, neon, and sculpture. They encompass themes Thomas has examined throughout his career, such as the impact of corporate branding, the construction of gender and race, and the struggle for liberty and equality. The exhibition also highlights Thomas’ mining of personal and public archives, and his ability to reframe texts, images, and materials to connect historical moments of resistance to our lives today. With incisive clarity, Thomas asks us to see and challenge systems of inequality that are woven into the fabric of contemporary life.
