The Brooklyn Museum is celebrating its bicentennial by emphasizing a blend of an alternative space ethos and traditional museum practices through modern projects.
This bicentennial celebration includes a rehang of American art galleries that interprets centuries of work through a lens influenced by post-Black Lives Matter discussions.
Founded in 1823 as a library, Brooklyn Museum has continuously integrated art into its mission, presenting African art and avant-garde modernism early on.
Over the years, the museum's commitment to controversy and inclusion has seen it support artists and showcase works that challenge mainstream perspectives.
