“re:mancipation” is a multi-year collaboration by New York artist Sanford Biggers, the MASK Consortium (representing museums and other institutions) and the Chazen, responding to the Thomas Ball sculpture “Emancipation Group” — on display at the Chazen. (In recent years, a version of the work was removed from public display in Boston). This multidisciplinary exhibition resulting from the project features new work by Biggers and others, video and music responding to Ball's work, historical timelines, documentary material about the project, and more. The opening reception from 5-7 p.m. on Feb. 4 will include music by Pharoahe Monch and Rich Medina; earlier on Saturday, family-friendly drop-in activities will be available from noon-2 p.m. as part of the museum's ArtSpin program.
