A new exhibition at Manhattan’s Metropolian Museum of Art, ‘Flight Into Egypt: Black Artists and Ancient Egypt – 1876 – Now,’ is an effort by black American artists to draw a connection to a history that has often been obscured. After centuries of archaeologists, historians and curators depicting Egypt as more Mediterranean than African, diasporan artists are seeking to set the story straight.
