About the Program
Immerse yourself in Wakanda, the most technologically advanced nation on Earth, where Prince T'Challa (a.k.a. Black Panther) must fight for the throne from factions within his own country. Rediscover this signature world of Jack Kirby and Stan Lee, who laid groundwork for the conceptual movement of Afrofuturism. With its status cemented as a cultural phenomenon, Black Panther is a mesmerizing visual wonder with unforgettable characters and action.
Directed by Ryan Coogler (2018, 135 min., Rated PG-13)
Arrive early to view the exhibitions! Black Panther is the perfect complement to the exhibition Jack Kirby: Heroes and Humanity, which delves into the six-decade career of legendary comic book artist Jack Kirby (1917–1994). And don't miss Diane von Furstenberg: Woman Before Fashion; Away in the Catskills: Summers, Sour Cream, and Dirty Dancing; Common Ground; and Visions and Values while you're here.
"...surreal and uproarious... the sheer enjoyment of everyone involved pumps the movie with fun." —The Guardian
