art monuments moca political exhibition

The article reports on "MONUMENTS," a major exhibition co-organized by the Brick and the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (MOCA), curated by Hamza Walker, Bennett Simpson, and artist Kara Walker. The show, on view at MOCA's Geffen Contemporary and the Brick through May 6, brings together nearly a dozen altered Confederate memorials alongside contemporary works. It features Kara Walker's reworking of the Stonewall Jackson monument from Charlottesville, Virginia, among other pieces, and was eight years in the making, spurred by the 2015 Charleston church shooting and the 2017 Unite the Right Rally.
