A resonant followup to its recently closed “Smoke & Mirrors: Magical Thinking in Contemporary Art,” a new exhibition at Boca Raton Museum of Art explores the complexities of human existence through a different take on “smoke and mirrors.” “Myths, Secrets, Lies, and Truths: Photography from the Doug McCraw Collection” spotlights five artists, such as Hank Willis Thomas, represented here, whose “Unbranded” series depicts advertisements created by white ad execs for the Black consumer market. Culled from the collection of the founder of Fort Lauderdale’s FATVillage arts district, the exhibition runs through Oct. 13. bocamuseum.org.
