Together their work creates a visual dialog around dreams that brings Hughes’ prose to life.

                  Barrier Breakers: From Jackie to Pumpsie 1947-1958 Exhibit at American Tobacco Campus, Crowe Lobby

                  • From Jackie to Pumpsie–1947-1959, is an exhibit developed by the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum (NLBM) in Kansas City, Missouri, tells the important , but oftentime overlooked story the courageous players who integrated their respective Major League Baseball (MLB) teams from Jackie Robinson joining the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947 through Elijah "Pumpsie" Green completing the integration cycle, 12 years later, with the Boston Red Sox.
                  • Robinson has rightfully been hailed for being the courageous first to break MLB's six-decade long, self-imposed color barrier. But those other integration pioneers who followed him endured tremendous social adversity as they trailblazed a path in their pursuit to play ball! The moral majority of them were former Negro Leaguers. This exhibit chronicles their story!

                  “Act as if you are a curator: an AI-generated exhibition” at the Nasher Museum of Art

                  • With recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI), now increasingly accessible to the world, our society is at another technological and ethical crossroads. Vast amounts of data can be synthesized into text and image generation and analytical interpretation, resulting in certain decision-making processes, once the exclusive domain of humans, now increasingly delegated to computers. This year the Nasher Museum embarked on an experiment to use AI to curate an exhibition from the museum’s collection. While museum professionals are far from relinquishing control of exhibition making and interpretation, this exercise is a powerful way to explore the applications of AI in the creative realm as related to curatorial authorship and expertise, the subjectivity of the selection process, and the future impact of technology on museums.
