Kerry James Marshall’s retrospective, *The Histories*, brings about 70 works spanning four decades to the Museum of Modern Art in Paris, where it is on view until late January. His paintings place Black American life—from slavery and the civil rights struggle to everyday scenes—at the scale and ambition of traditional history painting, blending references to European art and popular culture. Marshall says he has always sought to belong to the great painting tradition, and aims to portray Black figures with dignity and complexity.
