On view through May 17, “Rejoice, Resist, and Rest” brings together archival photographs from the renowned Johnson Publishing Company collection, contemporary art pieces, texts, and zines created by students in the Atlanta University Center (AUC) Art History + Curatorial Studies Collective and the Spelman Photography Program.
Art curator Susannah Perlman, who lost her mother to COVID-19, created the Hero Art Project on the National Mall to eternalize the smiles of other health care workers lost to the pandemic.
The art installation, called In America: Remember, will be on display at the National Mall for more than two weeks. It honors the more than 660,000 lives lost to COVID-19 in the United States.
