Title A name given to the resource <em><em><span>Brown, Bell, Garner</span></em><span><br /></span></em> Description An account of the resource <p>Recent work by Titus Kaphar addresses the human and civil rights crisis currently underway in the United States criminal justice system. This work responds, in particular, to the persistent, deadly assault of unarmed black men by law enforcement in America. This monumental drawing mourns the premature deaths of Sean Bell (1983–2006), Michael Brown (1996–2014), and Eric Garner (1970–2014). Kaphar sketches headshots of these young men in white chalk, layering one on top of the other on a ground of black asphalt paper. The resulting image appears to flicker between individual and collective portrait, challenging the viewer’s capacity, and willingness, to perceive these men as singular beings beyond any demographic group.</p> Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2015 Relation A related resource 2014-2015 Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource JPEG Type The nature or genre of the resource Still Image Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 2015.1.8 Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Titus Kaphar Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource ©Titus Kaphar.  Courtesy of the artist and Jack Shainman Gallery, New York.
