Prints by retired professor Karl Bethke in "Black and White" exhibition at Weisman Art Museum Aug 29-Feb 14.
From the Weisman:
Black and White refers to both the striking graphic qualities of the printed image and to the divisiveness at the heart of apartheid—the segregation of black and white. The remarkable story behind the prints within the exhibition and their presence in the museum’s collection links Minnesota’s Swedish-Lutheran heritage, the University’s art faculty, and the history of apartheid in South Africa. This story will be retold from August 2015 to February 2016 in the museum’s Carlson Gallery.
