Robert Colescott often addressed concepts of identity and racial bias from a personal perspective through family narratives, including portraits of himself and family members. In "Go West" (1980), Colescott illustrates the story of his parents’ migration from New Orleans to the Bay Area during the Great Migration after World War I in 1919, depicting them in profile on either side of a map of the United States. The painting is rife with symbolism: two adult birds tend to two baby birds in a nest—representing Colescott and his brother—with clouds containing objects that symbolize each parent.

See "Go West" before “Art and Race Matters: The Career of Robert Colescott” closes on October 9.
