Audrey Flack at Fairfield University Art Museum in Connecticut 'For Which It Stands…'

23 January – 25 July 2026

Gallery artist Audrey Flack's work Fourth of July Still Life, from the Kent Bicentennial Portfolio: Spirit of Independence (1975) is included in the group exhibition For Which It Stands… at Fairfield University Art Museum in Connecticut.

 

This exhibition examines depictions of the American flag through more than 70 works by a diverse group of artists, beginning during WWI with Childe Hassam’s Italian Day, May 1918 and continuing to the present day, including a textile sculpture commissioned for the show from Maria de Los Angeles.

 

The exhibition includes work in a variety of media by artists including Jasper Johns, Faith Ringgold, Robert Rauschenberg, Shepard Fairey, and Julie Mehretu, and challenges viewers to consider who the American flag truly represents and whether justice is available to all.
