Here at the Brooklyn Museum we are committed to addressing the most pressing current social and cultural issues not only in our canon-expanding exhibitions, but also in our new acquisitions for our renowned collection. So we are thrilled to announce that we recently acquired Shifting the Gaze by Titus Kaphar (b. 1976), who is one of the most significant contemporary artists to engage with issues of social justice today. Kaphar completed Shifting the Gaze on stage as a dramatic conclusion to his recent TED talk, “Can Art Amend History?,” that explored how the encoded language of art conveys the power and privilege of its subjects.
The painting is based on the Family Group in Landscape by 17th-century Dutch painter Frans Hals, and depicts a Caucasian couple, their two children, and an African servant, posed against a landscape. During his talk Kaphar veiled the figures of the couple and children with broad strokes of white paint—and shifts our gaze over to the servant. Shifting the Gaze will inaugurate our new exhibition series, One Brooklyn, scheduled to begin in the summer of 2018, that will feature one work from our collection that forges an inspiring encounter and expands the ways we see ourselves, the world and its possibilities.

“ブナの原生林の美しい高原で。。
このとても美しい高原で、contaxariaの内臓電池が切れて動かなくなる。
かなり山奥…（笑）
ふもとのコンビニなどでは電池の扱いがなく、諦めていたところ、
イオンの家電売り場でやっと見つけました。
その間に、東館山高山植物園を散策したり、ゴンドラに乗ったり、
渋温泉をぶらぶらしたりしましたが、ariaでの写真はなし（笑）
注）　カヤノ平高原は、林や山の遊歩道内への犬の立ち入りは禁止です。
まさにガッチャンとなってしまった最後の写真は、
