A new exhibition homes in on the array of artistic developments under way in 1964—the same year that saw the Beatles’ invasion of America, race riots erupting across the nation, the Civil Rights Act signed into law, and the first U.S. bombs dropped on North Vietnam. Curator Siri Engberg discusses such defining moments in recent history and ways in which they are mirrored through artworks—some iconic, some surprising—in the Walker’s collections.
