Exhibiting Forgiveness

How can a life in art help one to heal from generational trauma? In his landmark exhibition and feature-length film “Exhibiting Forgiveness,” celebrated contemporary artist Titus Kaphar draws upon his early life and coming of age to create a transmedial and deeply personal response to that question.

Through a selection of paintings made specifically for the film, this exhibition focuses upon essential moments in Kaphar’s storyline to immerse visitors in a process of recognition, understanding, and acceptance that parallels his character’s journey to adulthood within the film.
