Cantor Arts Center, just off Palm Drive, at Museum Way and Lomita Drive Map
The diverse works in this exhibition, including some 50 photographs, prints, artist books, and historical ephemera, dramatize the loss of those made missing by time, death, disaster, politics, or artistic composition. A silhouette portrait by Raphaelle Peale records the trace of a person’s profile by capturing a momentary shadow. Self-portraits by Lee Friedlander and Laura Volkerding play with shadow, absence, and blankness, suggesting the presence of a person who is not directly on view. Contemporary artists such as Glenn Ligon, Kara Walker, and Ester Hernandez address the missing through the lenses of history and oppression.
