Showcasing a lesser-known aspect of Betye Saar’s art, Serious Moonlight provides new insights into her explorations of ritual, spirituality, and cosmologies, as well as themes of the African diaspora. Featured are significant installations created by Saar from 1980 to 1998, including Oasis (1984), a work reconfigured for ICA Miami’s exhibition for the first time in more than thirty years.
