Participants in the ASL community are invited to explore the exhibition Draw Them In, Paint Them Out: Trenton Doyle Hancock Confronts Philip Guston through a virtual tour led by a Deaf Educator.

A defining figure of twentieth-century avant-garde art, the Jewish painter Philip Guston addressed racism, antisemitism, and his own complicity in white supremacy through his now iconic paintings of buffoonish Klansmen. Trenton Doyle Hancock, a leading Black contemporary artist and cartoonist known for his collaged canvases, similarly draws on the language of comics to challenge and comment upon the American condition. This installation will explore the artists’ shared commitment to investigating the legacy of white supremacy in the United States in ways that are both emotionally raw and deeply humorous.

Due to limited capacity, ASL students will not be admitted to the program and no voice interpretation will be provided. 

This exhibition contains explicit language, depictions of violence and lynchings, and reference to suicide. It also includes a video with flashing lights. If you have any questions about registration, accommodations, or the content of this tour, please reach out to us at access@thejm.org or 212.423.3289.
