Radical Presence: Black Performance in Contemporary Art

Last week, on our final day in Minnesota, we caught the much-anticipated show Radical Presence: Black Performance in Contemporary Art at the Walker. I haven't seen such bad-ass collection of work in a fine art establishment since visiting PAMM in Miami. Some of my favorites of the show included the following:
