The monumental painting follows on from the Garden series of paintings that Marshall began in the 1990s. These works address various “urban renewal” public housing projects in cities such as Chicago and Los Angeles that were developed at the government's behest, originally as part of utopian aspirations to create affordable housing for a growing population. The projects had names like Altgeld Gardens, Wentworth Gardens and Many Mansions. Originally they were successful neighborhoods, but economic crisis and civil unrest turned them into desolate ones, in stark contrast to their given names. In this series Marshall represents inhabitants of these housing schemes that cultivated false hopes for a better life.

Dit monumentale schilderij volgt op de reeks *The Garden Project* die Marshall vanaf 1990 schildert. Onderwerp van deze reeks zijn openbare woningbouwprojecten in Chicago en Los Angeles die ontwikkeld werden op vraag van de Amerikaanse regering, als onderdeel van een utopisch idee om betaalbare huizen te bouwen voor een groeiende populatie. De projecten hadden namen zoals Altgeld Gardens, Wenthworth Gardens en Many Mansions. Aanvankelijk waren het succesvolle wijken, maar door de economische crisis en civiele onrust veranderden ze in arme buurten. Op deze manier werden ze het tegengestelde van wat hun naam beloofde. Marshall verbeeldt in deze reeks bewoners van de woningprojecten die de valse beloftes van een beter leven cultiveren. \r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"ru","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"de","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"es","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"el","short_description":"","description":""}],"actors":[{"id":1222,"name":"Kerry James Marshall","category":{"en":"Creator","nl":"Vervaardiger","fr":"Créateur"}}]}
