"Elevation from Within: The Study of Art at Historically Black Colleges and Universities"
to
Wofford College Spartanburg, South Carolina
The Johnson Collection’s annual collaboration with Wofford College returns this fall. "Elevation from Within: The Study of Art at Historically Black Colleges and Universities" opens at Wofford's Rosalind Sallenger Richardson Center for the Arts on Sept. 1 and remains on view through Dec. 15.
Originally presented at TJC Gallery in 2019, "Elevation from Within" pays homage to HBCU alumni and professors whose educational backgrounds chronicle a vital chapter of American history and whose aesthetic achievements have made an indelible mark on this nation’s art. Presented by the Johnson Collection and curated by Dr. Leo Twiggs, "Elevation from Within" will be strategically placed at HBCUs with connections to the highlighted artists in 2022.
