The Phantom of Liberty

May 4 - December 30, 2018

I was convinced that we weren’t going to have this situation that we are going to be having for the next four years. And then suddenly Trump was elected president and the work felt so much more needed.

Yet, this stuff has been happening forever. We need to continue to make work that shines a light on things that have, for too long, been brushed under the rug. And I’m only making this work because I’m deeply connected to it because of who I am and where I’m from. . . . I was just so taken aback by how much was missing in terms of the stories that were being told in museums and in the American wings. And I kind of wanted to write in missing chapters with my pictures. –Raul Gonzalez III
