Veils of TAR | World Refugee Day


The Metropolitan Museum Shrouded a Mark Chagall Painting to Draw Attention to World Refugee Day

The museum shrouded the painting to ask the question: “What would the Met’s walls look like if there were no refugees?” Works by other famous artists including Max Ernst, Piet Mondrian, and Mark Rothko are labeled as works “made by a refugee.”
