Elizabeth Catlett bust of Martin Luther King Jr goes on view for first time in 40 years
Briefly

"Elizabeth Catlett is among the most consequential American artists of the 20th century, whose groundbreaking sculptures and prints bear witness to her lifelong advocacy for Black Americans and other historically marginalised communities."
"The bust encompasses a fascinating history that will significantly expand our ability to speak to Dr King's enduring impact on American life, and the politics involved in how he has been memorialised in public art."
