The exhibition charts a course through the end of the 19th century and into the first half of the 20th\, presenting the story of global growth and shifting ideas about the world around us—from pristine nature\, to its radical alteration in modern urban and industrial centers\, to panoramas ruined by war and environmental disregard. \nAugust 30\, 2023–June 2\, 2024\nThe Wolfsonian–FIU @ 1001 Washington Avenue \nVisit the Wolfsonian-FIU website for the latest information: URL:https://mdpl.org/event/the-big-world-alternative-landscapes-in-the-modern-era/2024-03-29/ LOCATION:Wolfsonian-FIU\, 1001 Washington Avenue\, Miami Beach\, FL\, 33139\, United States CATEGORIES:Museum Exhibition ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://mdpl.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/exhibition_the-big-world_banner-Large.jpeg ORGANIZER;CN="Wolfsonian-FIU":MAILTO:info@thewolf.fiu.edu END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20240329T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20240329T210000 DTSTAMP:20240329T030736 CREATED:20231201T172223Z LAST-MODIFIED:20231201T202334Z UID:10007551-1711706400-1711746000@mdpl.org SUMMARY:Silhouettes: Image and Word in the Harlem Renaissance DESCRIPTION:The flourishing of literary\, visual\, and musical arts between the 1920s and ’40s known as the Harlem Renaissance projected a new picture of Black life to the world. \nSilhouettes: Image and Word in the Harlem Renaissance considers the role of art in this movement\, paying special attention to the collaboration between artists and writers on illustrated books—works that reached a broad audience with stories and images that challenged demeaning stereotypes and asserted African Americans’ capacity for self-determination. \nCurated by Christopher Norwood\, founder of Hampton Art Lovers\, in consultation with Shawn Christian\, professor of English at Florida International University\, and Wolfsonian staff. \nSponsored by Cowles Charitable Trust\, Tamara L. Harris Foundation\, and Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau Art of Black Miami.

These establishments often commissioned commercial artists to create alluring menu covers that drew in customers by teasing an array of attractions\, including celebrity sightings\, risqué burlesque\, exotic foods\, and sophisticated surroundings. Featuring nearly 50 menus from the U.S. and Cuba\, along with programs\, postcards\, matchbooks\, and other items from iconic eateries on land\, at sea\, and in the air\, What’s on the Menu offers a glimpse of nightlife and dining in an age of glamour. \nThis installation is inspired by a recently promised gift from Vicki Gold Levi.
