Last-Chance Member Hours: Giants

Thursday, June 27, 2024

6–9 pm

Great Hall, 1st Floor


Enjoy a Members-only last-chance viewing of Giants: Art from the Dean Collection of Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys, the first major exhibition devoted to this world-class collection of works by multigenerational Black diasporic artists. As their holdings show, musical and cultural icons Swizz Beatz (Kasseem Dean) and Alicia Keys champion a philosophy of “artists supporting artists.” “Giants” refers to several aspects of their collection: the renown of legendary artists such as Gordon Parks and Jean-Michel Basquiat, the impact of canon-expanding contemporary artists such as Lorna Simpson and Nina Chanel Abney, and the monumental works by such creators as Derrick Adams, Arthur Jafa, and Meleko Mokgosi.
