Black Earth Rising brings together a selection of 23 magnificent paintings, sculptures, and films that celebrate the beauty and fragility of the earth. Curated by renowned art historian and author Ekow Eshun, the exhibition and companion publication demonstrate how some of today’s leading African diaspora, Native American, and Latin American artists are invoking the natural world as a source of renewal, resistance, and liberation. On view at the Baltimore Museum of Art through September 21. Installation photography by Maximilian Franz and Meg Rorison.
