Valley News - Writing is on the wall for VLS murals after judge's ruling

Writing is on the wall for VLS murals after judge’s ruling
Modified: 3/12/2021 9:29:34 PM
RUTLAND A federal judge has ruled that Vermont Law School can put up a wall to obscure a pair of murals, so long as the murals are unharmed.
The ruling, issued Wednesday by U.S. District Court Judge Geoffrey W. Crawford, deals a blow to artist Sam Kerson, who painted the murals, which depict scenes of slavery and the Underground Railroad, in 1993 and 1994. Crawford rejected Kerson’s request for a preliminary injunction preventing the law school from destroying or modifying the works.
Kerson had argued that the federal Visual Artists Rights Act, or VARA, protects the murals from even being covered. Law school officials, who last summer announced plans to paint over the murals, have covered them with dropcloths, but they intend to cover it with acoustic tiles placed 2 inches in front of the murals, each of which measures 8-by-24 feet. ....

Artist Sues Vermont Law School Over Planned Removal of His Slavery-Themed Mural

Section of the mural at Vermont Law School
In July 2020, Vermont Law School announced that it would remove from its campus a large mural that had incited controversy among students and faculty for its portrayal of slavery, African Americans and the Underground Railroad. Eight months later, the mural remains. Its removal has proved complicated and could be a test case for an obscure federal statute regarding visual artwork.
Thomas McHenry, then-president and dean of the South Royalton law school, initially announced that the mural would be painted over. Sam Kerson, the artist, objected. The plan was amended to give Kerson a chance to remove the mural. But carpenters determined that removal would require the work to be cut in pieces, constituting destruction. ....

A panel from a mural by Sam Kerson that had been displayed at Vermont Law School in Royalton, Vt. The school plans to paint over the mural, The Underground Railroad Vermont and the Fugitive Slave, painted in 1993, because the depictions of the African-Americans on the mural are offensive to many in our community and, upon reflection and consultation, we have determined that the mural is not consistent with our School’s commitment to fairness, inclusion, diversity, and social justice, according to a statement from VLS Dean Dean Thomas McHenry on July 6, 2020.
