The Jim Henson Exhibition will be a dynamic new visitor experience exploring Henson’s transformative impact on popular culture. This comprehensive exhibition will feature a selection from the Museum’s collection of nearly 500 objects related to Jim Henson’s unparalleled career, including historic puppets, costumes, production design material, and licensed merchandise. These objects, donated to the Museum by Henson’s family, will be featured along with character sketches, storyboards, scripts, behind-the-scenes footage, and interactive experiences highlighting Henson's immense contributions to the art and industry of the moving image. Informed by encounters with the quotidian, unassuming stuff of life and its circulation, the artists included in Material Deviance connect material and bodily processes with social and infrastructural ones. The artists look to irregularities, glitches, gaps, residues, and altered states - either found or enacted - as a means of accessing the latent histories of materials in order to expose underlying systems of power, regulation, value, and control. While these systems inevitably shape the movement of bodies through the world (both at the level of the individual and the social), the works on view reveal the cracks where counter-movements and improvisational modes of being and perceiving are possible. In January 2016, artists Hank Willis Thomas and Eric Gottesman created the first artist-run political action committee (PAC), For Freedoms. Through this non-partisan PAC, Thomas and Gottesman sought to use art to inspire deeper political engagement, inviting other artists to work with them on advertisements, exhibitions, and public meetings across the country that claimed political space for art. Rather than campaigning for or against any specific candidate or party, For Freedoms uses art to encourage discussions of core democratic values. • Complete Medical Exams • Wellness and Vaccination Programs • Ultrasonography • Nutritional Guidance • Cardiology Dr. Keith Manning | Dr. Erin Kulick
