Janet Dees is an art curator at the Block Museum of Art, the contemporary art museum on Northwestern University's campus that is free and open to all. Her exhibition, A Site of Struggle: American Art against Anti-Black Violence, is on view until July 10, 2022. We talked about curating an exhibition, how Janet got to this point in her career, and about art in general.
