Overview
A cyclorama installation where artist Carrie Mae Weems addresses conditions of race in the United States. 'The Shape of Things: A Film in Seven Parts' includes old and new footage projected on a 180 degree curve, reminiscent of 19th-century theatre and spectacle to comment on the “pageantry” and “circus-like” quality of contemporary American political life.
