Artist Conversation: Frederick Douglass | Liberty 

Saturday, November 23 | 12pm

Join the Reginald F. Lewis Museum for an artist conversation on their latest art installation, Frederick Douglass| Liberty with artist, Adam Himoff and historian, Dr. Noelle Trent. Frederick Douglass | Liberty is a modernized reimagining of the American abolitionist, writer, orator, and statesman Frederick Douglass (1817-1895). In the portrait, he is confident, determined, and courageous as we know him, but he is also remarkably hip and stylish in modern fashion and posed before a graffiti-scrawled space. Adam Himoff will discuss his inspiration behind the piece which has sparked both admiration and controversy from viewers.
