Happy New Year! The Noize is back for more Black art conversations for you. Your boy JBarber can’t come back without talking about the biggest thing going in art right now. The Hank Willis Thomas sculpture honoring Martin Luther King and Coretta Scott King. To say the reviews have been mixed is an understatement. JB talks about the piece, all the conversation around it, and what we can take away from it all. We are excited to announce our partnership with Black Art In America and how we will work together to keep bringing you more content and conversations. Listen, subscribe, and share!
