Portrait of an IconoclastArchibald J. Motley, Jr.

Dr. Amy Mooney, Associate Professor of Art at Columbia College, discusses Chicago’s "painter laureate.” Motley’s unique vision reflects an era of change from the Great Migration to the Chicago Renaissance to the seeding of the Civil Rights Movement. Mooney’s discussion focuses on Motley's portraits…unflinching investigations of race, class, and gender that remain relevant and inspiring.
