Theaster Gates on the Politics of What We Preserve

'We preserve the legacy of some people and cultures, while allowing others to fade into obscurity —  but make no mistake, says innovative artist  Theaster Gates , that process isn't neutral. His new exhibit at the Art Gallery of Ontario,  How To Build a House Museum , takes a closer look at what we deem worthy of memorializing, what we bother to preserve, and why it matters.' -- q on CBC
