'Turn the Volume Up!' Traces Protest Art in America

Art

Organized around themes of Remarks, Organize, Records, Dissents, and Petitions, the exhibition at Duke University’s Nasher Museum brings together artists like Kara Walker, Spider Martin, and the Guerilla Girls. Their photographs, prints, and installations demonstrate how art has amplified voices in moments of social upheaval.

Highlights include Carol Summers’ bold screenprint for an anti-war campaign and Bruce Davidson’s visceral civil rights-era photographs. Rotated throughout the run, the collection keeps the dialogue fresh. The show runs through July 2027, offering ample time to experience these urgent visual histories.
