We hope you join us for this end-of-summer Textile Arts | LA meet-up. We have a Self Guided Group Tour arranged for the acclaimed exhibit Mickalene Thomas: All About Love. Tickets are $22 per person for our Group Entrance. We’ll spend approximately 1.5 to 2 hours at the Museum and then head to the Arts District for lunch at ZINC Cafe.
“Debuting at The Broad with over 90 works made by the artist over the last 20 years, Mickalene Thomas: All About Love is the first major international tour of this pioneering artist’s work. The exhibition highlights how Mickalene Thomas has mastered and innovated within several disciplines, from mixed-media painting and collage to installation and photography. The exhibition shares its title and several of its themes with the pivotal text by feminist author Bell Hooks, in which love is an active process rooted in healing, carving a path away from domination, and towards collective liberation. Through her queries into pop culture and mass media, Thomas offers a reverberating demand for Black women to be seen and understood and for viewers to become what Hooks calls “practitioners of love.”
