“When we fundamentally understand the importance of art, then we want to support it because we know that it is necessary for our human spirit.” –Mickalene Thomas
As two members of the committee that helped curate the work of over 200 Brooklyn-based artists for The Brooklyn Artists Exhibition, Mickalene Thomas and Jeffrey Gibson share their approach to the selection process—considering both the artist and the audience.
Spotlighting artists who have lived or maintained a studio in Brooklyn during the last five years (2019–24), The Brooklyn Artists Exhibition honors the borough’s dynamic present, storied past, and bright future. Uniting more than 200 artists, this major group show highlights the remarkable creativity and diversity of Brooklyn’s populace.
