Over a month after painter Amy Sherald withdrew her exhibition from the National Portrait Gallery (NPG), citing concerns over possible censorship, the artist has found a new home for the next stop of her touring exhibition.

“American Sublime,” which was on view at the Whitney Museum of American Art until last month, will open at the Baltimore Museum of Art (BMA) on November 3 in place of its scheduled stop at the NPG. BMA said in a press release that it had already planned to honor Sherald, who attended the local Maryland Institute College of Art, in November with the BMA’s “Artist Who Inspires” award for her artistic accomplishments, including her portrait of former First Lady Michelle Obama.

“Amy’s story is also deeply intertwined with Baltimore,” BMA Director Asma Naeem said in a statement shared with Hyperallergic. “Beyond her education and time lived in our beloved city, Baltimore is rooted in her subjects, on her canvases, and in her titles.”
