When guests step into the galleries at Crystal Bridges, they’re greeted by Nari Ward’s “We the People,” a colorful installation made of shoelaces that spell out the first words of the U.S. Constitution. ✍️ A quick turn reveals a series of paintings in the Early American Gallery that weren't necessarily created in America's early days. Rather than telling a chronological story of American history, this wall was curated to reflect the wide range of American perspectives and experiences that make up the fabric of our nation. 🇺🇸 This #IndependenceDay, explore five centuries of American art at your museum. 🎨 Nari Ward, “We the People (black version),” 2015. Shoelaces.
