Ceremony of Faces

A Solo Show by William J. O'Brien

February 13th - May 22nd, 2026

​

Ceremony of Faces is a site-responsive installation in the KMAC lobby that consists of large felt and multimedia compositions by the artist William J. O'Brien. The artist frequently focuses his expression and area of research on head shapes, viewing them as containers of multiple meanings inspired by over a millennium of artistic exploration into the human form and particularly the human head, a container itself of our consciousness and thoughts on our existence and place within the universe.

Stan Squirewell: Threads of Influence

March 20th - July 5th, 2026

​Vernissage, an Exhibition Preview Series: Thursday, March 19th, 5-8pm

​

Squirewell’s work emerges from the labor histories and the importance of family portraiture in African American communities, traditions that drive the continued cultural relevance of fashion and resourcefulness within the African American experience. His source imagery largely consists of found portraits that already contain a sense of honor, family portraits taken on an important occasion, but through Squirewell’s process of repurposing and reclamation he offers a renewal that firmly places his subjects in a more modern era, furthering their greatness, giving them a renewed sense of pride, dignity, and pleasure fit for today’s times. 

​

In addition, we are honored to host an exhibition featuring the work of Minnie Evans, on view April 4th - October 4th, 2026. Subscribe to our newsletter to keep up with upcoming exhibitions and events!
