Resumen

Project a Black Planet: Art and Culture of Panafrica was co-organized by the Art Institute of Chicago (AIC) and MACBA Museu d’Art Contemporani de Barcelona, in collaboration with KANAL-Centre Pompidou Bruxelles. The exhibition, held at the Art Institute of Chicago, ran from December 15, 2024 to March 30, 2025 and was curated by Antawan I. Byrd, Elvira Dyangani Ose, Adom Getachew, and Matthew S. Witkovsky. It was partly funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), a relevant detail within the context of my viewing.
