Art Museum of the Americas

A Washington DC art gallery has abruptly cancelled two exhibitions featuring Black and LGBTQ+ artists, prompting accusations that it has caved in to Donald Trump’s crackdown on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programmes.

The Art Museum of the Americas, run by the Organization of American States (OAS), was due to present the shows Nature’s Wild with Andil Gosine and Before the Americas in March.

The decision to pull the exhibits coincided with an executive order issued by the Trump administration directing a review of relationships with international organisations that receive US funding. To Gosine, it is an alarming example of pre-emptive capitulation – obeying in advance.
