LAUREL, Miss. (WDAM) - The Lauren Rogers Museum of Art has opened a gallery featuring works by African American artists from around the country, Mississippi and the Pine Belt.
âIdentity and Responseâ is a collaborative between members of the staff at LRMA and local artist, Michael Ross, who is the curator for the exhibit. Ross was instrumental in placing each piece in a way which gives meaning and significance to those adjacent with each other.
Artwork from Ross is included in the exhibit with the bulk coming from the permanent collection owned by the museum.
