For her first major solo museum exhibition, Amy Sherald presents new and recent portraits in CAM's Front Room gallery. Whether the subject is Michelle Obama or African Americans she encounters in the grocery store, Sherald's practice emphasizes the power of a black individual's image as seen in a gallery or museum. Her art is a reflection on blackness, or as she says, "My paintings hold up a mirror and reflect real experiences of blackness today and historically."
