About SFMOMA:
Founded in 1935 under the direction of Grace McCann Morley, SFMOMA was the first museum on the West Coast dedicated to modern and contemporary art. While SFMOMA has yet to adopt an institution-wide land acknowledgment, we encourage audiences to view this film commissioned for our platform Open Space: sfmoma.me/3iKWF4c. Updates on the museum’s ongoing diversity, equity, and inclusion work can be found here: sfmoma.me/3a46wzO.
In support of our commitment to institutional accountability, SFMOMA’s social media team will routinely moderate and respond to public comments to ensure they remain spaces of lively discourse and art appreciation from many voices.
She's incredible. The work that goes into these pieces is intense.

If it does it will be a few years. This exhibition was commissioned for/by SFMoMA and will be up from 1 July 2024 through Spring 2026. It might be faster/more satisfying to fly to SF to see it, especially if/when she's there live giving a talk. I know I'm flying out from TX to see it. I can't wait!!! It's just too Blacktastique to wait. LOL!!!
Blaze on Kara!!!

Love this work, but also: is that a tattoo on Blake's Portrait of Joanna? I think it is, but I'm not sure.
