Going Home
“I want to carry my home with me all the time, like a snail,” mused Do Ho Suh in the second season of our Art in the Twenty-First Century series. The idea of home can be translated in a variety of ways: from a literal representation found in built structures and hometowns, to the feeling of acceptance discovered by a new place and community. This collection of films explores how artists address the concept of home. Themes of contradiction, coming-of-age, blight, and immigration are all confronted with the use of sculpture, photography, and video works.
