Rising Sun: Artists in an Uncertain America
Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Philadelphia, PA
March 23 - December 31, 2023
Two historic Philadelphpia museums, The African American Museum in Philadelphia and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, jointly present Rising Sun: Artists in an Uncertain America, a transformative exhibition of new works examining the provocative and timely question: “Is the sun rising or setting on the experiment of American democracy?”
 
Rising Sun features installations by 20 celebrated artists, including Shiva Ahmadi, to explore themes of equality, free speech, and other tenets of democracy. In a time when perspectives in the U.S. are radically disparate, we invite you to explore how art inspires us to reflect on, challenge, and expand our own lived experiences.
