Bus Trip to MFA to see WITNESSING HUMANITY: THE ART OF JOHN WILSON, the largest-ever retrospective of this Roxbury native’s work.
Born in Roxbury, Mass, John Wilson (1922-2015) is one of Boston’s most esteemed artists. His work, made over the span of 60 years, continues to resonate with the persistent realities of disenfranchisement, racial prejudice and social injustice. The exhibit explores the many ways Wilson called attention to racial, social and economic injustices through his art. This show, co-organized by the MFA and Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, features more than 100 of Wilson’s creations, including prints, paintings and sculpture. Sponsored by Racial Justice Advocates – RJA.
