The inaugural exhibition of the Marciano Art Foundation, Jim Shaw: The Wig Museum highlights Shaw's (born 1952) career-long engagement with America's diverse histories. The Los Angeles local used the enigmatic artifacts found during the transformation of the former Scottish Rite Masonic Temple where the foundation resides-stage sets, robes, costumes and wigs-to construct a metaphor for the wig-wearing masonic and judiciary Anglo-Saxon power that is coming to an end.
