Kara Walker's work explores the raw intersection of race, gender, and sexuality through iconic, silhouetted figures. Walker unleashes the traditionally Victorian medium of the silhouette directly onto the walls of the gallery. In recent works, the Walker uses overhead projectors to throw light onto the walls and floor of the exhibition space, implicating the audience through their own shadows. Kara Walker's is featured in the Season 2 episode "Stories" of the Art21 series "Art:21 -- Art in the Twenty-First Century". For more information: http://www.pbs.org/art21 © 2003, 2007 Art21, Inc.

If that's where the follow of art takes her, so be it. I'm not one to poorly judge others creativity. It's just not my cup of tea.

The wikipedia page is now censoring any criticism of kara Walker's work. If you want to know more about the criticism of her work by African American artists, visit brandshire (dot) com

Howardena Pindell has some choice words for Michael Ray Charles and Kara Walker alike. Google howardena pindell kara walker, and read her N Paradoxa paper.
