SUMMARY:Community Free Day for Against the Grain Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Jewish Museum Milwaukee is thrilled to host this community day for anyone living in Milwaukee County to visit Against the Grain: The Remarkable Life of Artist Bernard Perlin for FREE! \nBernard Perlin was a minority\, outsider\, gay man\, and pursuer of truth\, beauty\, and justice. Born to Russian Jewish immigrants in 1918\, artist-activist Perlin was a talented painter\, illustrator\, war artist-correspondent\, and photographer\, who tackled stylistic genres\, the horrors of WWII\, issues of social justice\, and homosexuality with conviction and bravery. \nThis exhibit celebrates and brings deserved visibility to an artist who lived passionately and unapologetically against the grain. It explores the benefits and challenges of multi-faceted identities\, immigration\, and assimilation. Additionally\, it delves into historical experiences of persecution and discrimination against minority groups that reflect similar attitudes that are still prevalent today.
