Exhibition: The Works of Acclaimed Artist Theaster Gates

In celebration of Black History Month, the Hessel Museum will be showing two works by highly acclaimed artist Theaster Gates. Theaster’s practice includes sculpture, installation, performance, and urban interventions that aim to bridge the gap between art and life. He works as an artist, curator, urbanist, and facilitator. His projects trigger the creation of cultural communities by acting as catalysts for social engagement that leads to political and spatial change. Gates lives and works in Chicago.

Sponsored by the Hessel Museum and the Office of the Dean of Inclusive Excellence.
