Tell Me What’s Really Going On
An Exhibition Celebrating Creativity and Social Justice
February 29 – April 30th, 2020
Vermonters address injustice and explore truths through multiple artistic media.
Tell Me What’s Really Going On addresses social justice/injustice in the world through the works of multiple artists and media. The show looks at political art from both a historical and contemporary perspective to explore the importance of protest art; banners & signs and their role as organizing tools. The show highlights imagery and photography as ways to make us look at the world differently, and incorporates contemporary art to highlight that the power and inspiration for political art can also happen outside of the streets.
Artists include: John Douglas, Michael Kuk, Diane Gayer, Jessica Morrison, Caitlin La Dolce, Marie Davis, Joseph Gainza, Jen Berger, and Jean Cherouny.
