This event has ended.

Inspired by Gary Hume’s image of “Michael”, We Are the World presents a multi-media exhibition that celebrates the artists’ ability to capture humanity in a wide-ranging fashion. From self-portraits to conceptual strategies, the exhibition surrounds viewers with an audience that blurs the notion of who’s on display. The individual understanding of each artist is revealed through their ability to capture limitless possibilities through the mediums of painting, sculpture, photography and works on paper. Included in the exhibition are a number of artworks inspired by Mrs. Landau, her family and cherished friends by Andy Warhol, Robert Mapplethorpe, Annie Leibovitz, Peter Hujar, Inez van Lamsweerde, Robert Rauschenberg, Bruce Weber, Adam Fuss and Timothy Greenfield-Sanders.
