In Search of the Truth (The Truth Booth)
Goodman Taft was delighted to present In Search of the Truth (The Truth Booth), by Hank Willis Thomas, Ryan Alexiev, Jim Ricks, and Will Sylvester of the Cause Collective, in Boston in collaboration with the Rose Kennedy Greenway and Samuels & Associates.
A temporary public art project, In Search of the Truth (The Truth Booth) has traveled the globe inviting members of the public to complete the statement “The truth is…”. Capturing voices from Ireland, Afghanistan, and throughout the United States, this ongoing project creates a diverse and nuanced portrait of our collective desires that extends beyond geographic boundaries.
The Truth Booth was on view at The Verb Hotel, 1271 Boylston St, Boston, from April 11 – 12, 2016, and at the north end of The Greenway from April 13 – 15, 2016. Founding Cause Collective artist Hank Willis Thomas spoke on April 12, 2016 at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston as part of their Visiting Artist Lecture Series.
