The horrific phenomenon of lynching runs through the Vida Americana Show at the Whitney Museum of American Art.
Our works were acquired over several decades. The artists range from the African-American New Yorker Vernon Poindexter and the Massachusetts-based Italian-American Umberto Romano, to the Cleveland-born Marion Campbell Kronfeld, who worked in Los Angeles, and Michael J. Gallagher, from the Pennsylvania coal fields.
