Love is spoken with an accent. The exhibitions Arthur Jafa: I am tony and other exhibitions at new museum are bombastic language lessons in disguise. It’s a critical reviews of the images from the past decades. It talks about love in the most specific of terms. Men love women. Women love men. It’s about the modern conditions of love as a transactional item. The videos on screens suggest there are much to be discreet about emotional troubles. In the racial diagram of heterosexual relationships, people seek a queer way out. It’s about the spiritual context of black America, and white supremacy.
