Dusha Marks Artist’s First Solo Museum Exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum

The Brooklyn Museum presents Liz Johnson Artur: Dusha, the first solo museum exhibition devoted to the work of the Russian Ghanaian artist, whose three-decade career has focused on photographing individuals and communities across the African diaspora. The exhibition will present an installation of photographic works, sketchbooks, films, and audio drawn from Johnson Artur’s vast Black Balloon Archive, which she began after her first visit to Brooklyn in 1986. Curated by Drew Sawyer, the Museum’s Phillip Leonian and Edith Rosenbaum Leonian Curator of Photography, the exhibition will be on view from May 3 to August 18, 2019.
