Featured in THE PRINTS OF SAM GILLIAM from the Michael K. and Marian E. Butler Collection, Prelude to New Columbia (1994) was created for Washington, D.C.’s cultural campaign supporting the city’s long standing quest for statehood. The print reflects Gilliam’s artistic innovation and his deep commitment to the community he lived in for more than sixty years.

The exhibition is on view through July 26, 2026.

Organized by Landau Traveling Exhibitions in association with the Griots Gallery @ The Center for Haitian Studies, Miami, FL.

Opening Today at the Lauren Rogers Museum of Art!
“The Prints of Sam Gilliam” is now on view—a vibrant, boundary‑pushing exhibition drawn from the Michael K. and Marian E. Butler Collection.

Gilliam, a groundbreaking force in American abstraction and a key figure of the Washington Color School, brought extraordinary innovation to printmaking. This exhibition features 30+ works from 1972–2009, showcasing his signature fusion of color, improvisation, and sculptural sensibility.

Gilliam made history as the first Black artist to represent the United States at the Venice Biennale (1972), and this exhibition captures the brilliance that shaped his legacy.

On view: May 26 – July 26, 2026

Organized by Landau Traveling Exhibitions in association with the Griots Gallery @ The Center for Haitian Studies, Miami, FL
