University of Wisconsin-News featured photos from a Nov. 30 art exhibit at the UW-Madison Art Lofts by Eric Adjetey Anang, Ghanaian woodcarver, master-coffin builder and Windgate Artist in Residence in the Art Department.
Anang’s gun-breaking ceremony showcased a gun-shaped coffin he has worked on during his residency at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Anang invited guests to participate in a symbolic breaking of the barrel of his gun-shaped coffin in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement and against gun violence locally, nationally and internationally.
