We live in many Americas, each shaped by a different experience of the country and how our nation came to be.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each of the artworks in \u201cMany Americas: Art Meets History\u201d uses history as its point of departure and speaks to present day issues. The artworks demonstrate the multiple, sometimes competing histories of America. Artists draw upon personal histories and history as understood by their own communities. Some of these may be familiar, some may reflect a part of America that is unknown to us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In doing this, we invite the viewer to consider the art museum to be a public square where we can come together and explore important civic issues. Artworks raise questions about patriotism, racialized violence, media representation, untold histories, immigration, family trauma, community evolution, gentrification, segregation, inequality, and social justice. The premise is that the more we know about our fellow citizens, the better citizens we can be; that our biases and blind spots are overcome by listening to the stories of others. The more we understand the past, the better we are prepared to make decisions about the present.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibition is Inspired by historian Ronald Takaki\u2019s\u00a0<em>A Different Mirror: A History of Multicultural America<\/em>. Each of the artists in this exhibition picks up the unfinished work of history and invites a conversation about America\u2019s future.
