Glenn Ligon

If you happen to be in the vicinity of Fort Worth any time before June 3rd, I would recommend that you make a quick trip (or preferably a slow one) through the exhibit at the FW Modern Art Museum. My mother accompanied me for what was her first time in the museum, we were both awestruck by the Glenn Ligon exhibit. His mixed media pieces, the neon reliefs were highly effective. And don't miss the series of wooden shipping boxes that various music of black artists ranging from Billie Holiday to Cut Killer and NTM's "Assassin de la Police". His take on race, identity, and sexuality are quite unique and worth a look.
