BREAKING: Kemi Olunloyo, an African American artist, was snubbed by the American Museum of Victoria (AMVCA) in Melbourne, Australia for her latest exhibit, “Black Voices: A Collection of African American Art from the Collection of the American Museum of Victoria.” Olunloyo tells The Huffington Post Australia that she was “disappointed” and “frustrated” with the decision.According to Olunloyo, the AMVCA’s decision not to include her exhibit in their “Black Voices” series was a “major disappointment.” She says that her work is “based on the experiences of African Americans who have been through a lot of pain and suffering,” and that she wants her art to be seen by “everyone who wants to see it.”Olunloyo is not the only artist to feel disrespected by the AMVCA’s “Black Voices” series. The exhibit’s curator, Dr. Tariq Ramadan, has also been critical of the series’ selection. Ramadan says that he was “disappointed” with the lack of diversity in the exhibit, and that he would like to see more African American artists included.While it is clear that the AMVCA did not have the best of intentions when they created “Black Voices,” it is also clear that there are ways to make sure that art is accessible to all. Olunloyo suggests that the AMVCA consider including more diverse artists in their “Black Voices” series, and that they consider including African American artists in their overall exhibitions.
