What makes you spend longer with one work of art after an exhibition’s headline has brought you in?
Between Here and Infinity makes room for Black women artists to be encountered as distinct minds, not one collective message.

Some people will only have an hour in the museum. They need an entry point.
Give them one. Just leave room for the work to take them somewhere else.
A big anniversary show can make every artist sound like part of the same statement.
Spend time with one work and that neat summary usually gets harder to keep. That's a good thing.
