Swizz Beatz (Kasseem Dean) and Alicia Keys present a selection of artworks from their collection that critique society and celebrate Blackness.

The artists names are set in Trois Mille Black 15 and paired with our text typeface Simula Italic.

Description of the exhibition by the Brooklyn Museum:

The Brooklyn Museum’s presentation spotlights works by Black diasporic artists, part of our ongoing efforts to expand the art-historical narrative. “Giants” refers to several aspects of the Dean Collection: the renown of legendary artists, the impact of canon-expanding contemporary artists, and the monumental works by such creators as Derrick Adams, Arthur Jafa, and Meleko Mokgosi. Immense pieces—including the largest ever by Mokgosi—are paired with standouts such as Parks’s seminal photographs, Wiley’s revolutionary portraits, and Esther Mahlangu’s globe-bridging canvases.
