Fragile Freedoms: Maggie Meiners Revisits
Rockwell
February 6–June 13, 2021
As timely and thought provoking as it
gets. This exhibition reimagines the iconic work of
Norman Rockwell through the lens of modern America. With stunningly vivid
detail, Maggie Meiners’s carefully constructed photographs turn nostalgia
on its head and rework Rockwell’s familiar imagery to address contemporary
issues including racism, sexuality, gender roles, and the impact of
technology.
While the social climate in our country has changed dramatically in the 60 years between Meiners and Rockwell, comparisons of these two bodies of work illustrate that people’s desires and fears often stay the same.
We realize that our freedoms are, indeed, fragile.
