This exhibition poster features a reproduction of the 1975 work "The Family" by Romare Bearden. This specific image served as the official poster for the U.S. Census 2000 national campaign. The composition utilizes Bearden's mastery of the collage medium to depict a multi-generational African American family through a sophisticated arrangement of vibrant colors and fragmented forms. The poster is presented in a deep burgundy mat and housed in a slim blue metal frame.
