"Laylah Ali"
1999-08-02 until 1999-11-07
Museum of Contemporary Art
Chicago, IL, USA United States of America

The works on paper by Laylah Ali are the product, as the artist writes, of a generation of an African-American grown not under the weight of racial discrimination but in an age of mixed messages. Her surreal figures are both a representation of stereotypes that have undergone different permutations and icons of a different way of looking at race and violence.
