The Cedar Rapids Museum of Art has two new exhibits. “Power and Protest” features works form the Museum’s collection depicting the behind-the-scenes work to keep people in power, and the demonstrations, marches, and rallies that speak to that power.
“Power and Protest” was created as a companion to the traveling exhibit “American Visionary – John F. Kennedy’s Life and Times.” This collection features familiar, and many not-so-familiar images of Kennedy and his family. Museum curator Kate Kunau says that John and Jackie Kennedy were very cognizant of the power of images, and did everything they could to make sure the photos that were published showed the image of their family and their country that they wanted to express.
Both exhibits are on now at the museum. www.crma.orgfor more information.
