PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
Convening a panel of internationally
acclaimed artists featured in In Pursuit:
Artists’ Perspective on a Nation, the
National Liberty Museum presents a
discussion on the power of art and
freedom of expression. Moderator
Stephanie Sparling Williams, Curator of
American Art at the Brooklyn Museum,
will lead the discussion, exploring the
important role that art plays in liberal
societies and the real tensions that emerge
when artists engage in contemporary
political and social movements. Hear
directly from artists on how they
maneuver in a challenging era of political
polarization and around forces of social
moderation and even censorship. Is art
ever just … art? Or is the personal still
political?

Institution Description:
The National Liberty Museum is committed to building a society that values freedom of
thought, civil discourse, respect for all people, and the essential pursuit of liberty: a shared
pursuit among all of us. Through our partnerships, public programs, and exhibitions our
audiences get the opportunity to connect with other people to discuss concepts, topics, and
contemporary events around liberty.
