Kara Walker


OK OK, Kara Walker is showing at The Whitney until February 3rd. SEE HER NOW.


C'mon for once just listen. Kara Walker, African-American artist, creates awesome 18th century style silhouette cut outs of black paper on a white background. Kara Walker will challenge every racial stereotype you've ever known and fuck with your little white mind. Go see this exhibition, I'm telling you you'll love it. Or hate it (probably hate it), but I bet she'll illicit a reaction.

Remember the exhibition ends February 3rd! That's so soon!
