Exhibition Information
The ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement spread across the US, caused by the ‘murder of George Floyd’ on May 25 in 2020, in which an unarmed black man was killed by the excessive use of force of the police. It shows that the problem Martin Luther King Jr. faced in the past still maintains. Connected to racism against Asians occurred due to the COVID-19 and moreover to the movement struggling for hate crimes against Asians, the problem of racism has reminded us of the severity of this issue. Artists living in this era are raising their voices through artworks that fully reflect the injustice of the times. Gana Art recognizes the implications of the times through their works and presents a group exhibition, Today and Tomorrow showcasing the works from six artists, who capture the current era with their keen eyes. We hope that the visitors could sympathize with the challenge the artists are facing ‘today’ and agonize together about the problems of ‘tomorrow’ in this exhibition.
