New York City’s Museum of Arts and Design is planning the first institutional survey of Sonya Clark, an artist whose interactive installations use everyday materials to highlight aspects of Black history and culture that are frequently suppressed or invisible. Slated to open in the fall of 2022, it will bring together Clark’s large-scale participatory projects with individual artworks in a comprehensive overview of her thirty-year career.
