Mission statement
|
|
|
The Santa Monica Museum of Art presents dynamic exhibitions of contemporary art in all mediums and across disciplines that reveal the vibrant, untold stories in the art and culture of our time. SMMoA: the Small Museum that takes Big Risks is the only non-collecting museum in Southern California. The museum devotes its exhibition spaces—the main gallery and two Project Rooms—to exploring and advancing the work of important contemporary local, national, and international artists whose unique bodies of work merit sustained inquiry and recognition. The museum offers a wide range of thought-provoking lectures, symposia, gallery talks, film screenings, performances, and outstanding educational programs for people of all ages.

In the Main Gallery:
September 8 - December 23, 2007
William Pope.L—Art After White People: Time, Trees, & Celluloid…
William Pope.L—Art After White People: Time, Trees, & Celluloid… will include: a large-scale installation, The Grove; a set design and video, APHOV (A Personal History of Videography); as well as a set of digital collages in light boxes entitled The Semen Pictures. Created especially for SMMoA, these works will constitute the first major West-Coast museum exhibition by this artist, who has consistently worked on the edge of the art world, often literally integrating his vision into the physical fabric of the social landscape. Ironically self-dubbed the “friendliest black artist in America,” Pope.L’s practice has continually challenged and confronted social inequity and the bogus construction of difference with dark humor and biting critique.
