About the Exhibit

Revisiting Prop Master recreates and further explores the themes in the 2009 physical exhibition, Prop Master, an art installation by Susan Harbage Page and Juan Logan at the Gibbes Museum of Art in Charleston, South Carolina. This digital exhibit serves as a catalog of Prop Master's exploration of the South Carolina Lowcountry’s history of black/white and gender/sexual interconnectedness. In addition to serving as a catalog, Revisiting Prop Master shares interviews with the artists and discusses the history that underpins the art within Prop Master. Published on the 10th anniversary of Prop Master, this new exhibition carries on the important conversations that Logan and Page's artwork unveiled. Published February 2019.
