Hales is excited to announce the inclusion of Sunil Gupta in the group exhibition Beautiful Diaspora / You Are Not the Lesser Part at the Museum of Contemporary Photography, Chicago.
Beautiful Diaspora / You Are Not the Lesser Part advocates dialogue and solidarity across the spectrum of experiences of global artists of color and Black diasporic artists. Two exhibition concepts and their interchangeable titles intertwine as one, breaking with more frequent traditions of ethnically separated and disconnected exhibition spaces in museology and the art world.
The visual conversation among these fifteen artists defies the imposed political distances and legacies of colonialism that prefer they neither align nor meet. There is a significance, and a hope, to diverse Black and global artists of color together in shared space.
