The Art Assignment | Art about Migration @theartassignment | Uploaded April 2019 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
Migration is central to human experience, and art history reflects that. Skipping through time and geography, we explore Jacob Lawrence's Migration Series, Lapita pottery, the Akbarnama, and the Mexica codex "Tira de la Peregrinación," and also discuss contemporary art about migration.
