BLACK ART

Support for the Black Lives Matter movement also comes from the art world. The main American artists, on social networks, took part in both the “blackout Tuesday” and used messages and works of art to support the demonstrators on the street. One is Nikkolas Smith who made the portrait of Floyd who invaded Instagram. But not only museums too, the Whitney Museum in New York has opened the ranks of activist museums by publishing the work of activist artist Dread Scott, a black flag bearing the words “A Man Was Lynched by Police Yesterday”.
