Join Jeffrey Deitch Director, Melahn Frierson, and Arts Educator, AJ Girard, as they walk through and reflect on curating their exhibition “Shattered Glass”. The massive 40-person group exhibition features works by Fulton Leroy Washington (a.k.a. Mr. Wash), Kandis Williams, rafa esparza, Shaniqwa Jarvis and Raj Debah, among others. “Shattered Glass” presents empowered narratives that are often made marginalized and overdetermined structurally in art institutions and beyond. 

The title asserts the agency of Black and Brown artists that rises from the ruins of traditional figurative portraiture and related art contexts. Comprised mostly of younger artists, the exhibition champions community, accessibility, joy, and, of course, Los Angeles.
