Through June 1, the San Luis Obispo Museum of Art (SLOMA) will display Notes for Tomorrow, an exhibition of “artworks from around the world, brought together to reflect on a new global reality ushered in by the COVID-19 pandemic,” the museum announced.
“Coming out of a moment where collective crisis had to be managed through collective care, Independent Curators International (ICI) turned to 30 curators from 25 countries to consider the issues that have come to light in the pandemic’s aftermath, asking each of them to share one artwork that they believe is vital to be seen today,” according to the museum.
The show marks the five-year anniversary of the pandemic’s beginning, and according to SLOMA, “these works invite us to consider what was learned during that time. In the post-pandemic moment of cultural transition, each work acts as a source of inspiration from the recent past. Rather than proposing a single path forward, the artworks in Notes for Tomorrow present a network of overlapping solutions.”
SLOMA is located at 1010 Broad St., SLO. Δ
