40 WHAT'S UP! JANUARY 19-25, 2020 At Home In The World Exhibit explores shelter, displacement Continued from Page 11 BENTONVILLE "One of the things we can learn by looking at this exhibition, through their work, artists are invoking that history of both chosen and forced migration. The movement of human flow, as they put it, is a centuries- long, not just problem, but experience for many people," Stites says of the exhibition "Refuge."

"And then, of course, there began to be more and more artists addressing this issue from a historical perspective and then commenting on contemporary and current experiences. This is a worldwide phenomenon." (Courtesy Photo/21c Museum Hotels) "In many of the works, there's this interesting duality of intimacy and distance — from the subject matter and from the image — that I think has been really an articulate commentary on this very important and terrifically challenging human rights crisis," Stites offers.
