>>  Fred Wilson will represent the U.S. in the Venice Biennale in June,

>>  Maryland Historical Society. For the Venice exhibition we a seeking
>>  to borrow paintings and/or other appropriate objects that are or look
>>  like they were painted in Europe from the 15th-18th Century and have
>>  black figures somewhere in them. Blacks do not have to the main
>>  subject of the work. We understand the difficulty in borrowing such
>>  works because of time constraints and the location and nature of the
>>  exhibition but we are not looking for masterworks and they do not
>>  have to be in perfect condition. If you have knowledge of such works
>>  we'd appreciate it if you would contact us.
