This is an excerpt from the exhibition brochure: "In 1970, the celebrated singer and activist Nina Simone and the poet Weldon Irvine released the song, ?To Be Young, Gifted, and Black,? which became an anthem commemorating the achievements of the African American community during the Black Power movement. Nearly fifty years later, this exhibition, drawn from the Lumpkin-Boccuzzi Family Collection of Contemporary Art, celebrates Simone?s prideful call to action. Young, Gifted, and Black?with over forty contemporary artworks made in the last thirty-five years?arrives at a moment of unprecedented visibility for black artists who have historically been underrepresented in museums and major collections. Younger-generation voices, in dialogue with established predecessors, explore questions of race, sexuality, power, and history, while also pushing the boundaries of artistic practice. Some of the works on view address the daily, real-world struggles of African Americans, while others focus on more personal?and more universal?questions of identity.We hope that this exhibition will inspire your own investigation into the same questions these young and gifted artists are asking."
