This article discusses Fred Wilson’s work involving the notion of museums, and they way they present objects that may represent discriminatory and racist views. He exposes these ideas through his own work, which consists of actual artifacts and objects. I did some research on Fred Wilson and found an Art 21 documentary on him and really liked his creative views and processes. He manipulates already existing objects from different parts of the world and history to create his own message. His messages speak of racial views and identity issues that he has struggled with in his life. I think he is a free spirit and I admire his confidence and creative drive.
