Brooklyn Museum’s ’23 exhibition schedule leaps across artistic categories
Picasso, The Great Migration, African fashion, zine art and more
PROSPECT HEIGHTS — The Brooklyn Museum’s upcoming 2023 exhibitions span a true multitude of topics and contemporary muses. From the history and dissection of social progress and equality – as well as a timely exhibition of the rich countercultural ‘zine’ art – to the display and analysis of African artistic techniques, the institution will be commemorating poignant art in the near and far past.
Next year’s presentations include a group show of contemporary artists reflecting on the complex and continuing legacy of the Great Migration; a landmark exhibition celebrating the creativity, ingenuity, and global impact of African fashions; a multidecade survey of visually captivating, experimental work by María Magdalena Campos-Pons; and the first major exhibition of zines by artists working in North America, bringing attention to this unexamined but vibrant aesthetic practice.
In addition, as part of a global initiative marking the fiftieth anniversary of Pablo Picasso’s death, the Museum will partner with writer and comedian Hannah Gadsby to explore the artist’s legacy through a feminist lens.
