Please join us next Thursday, June 18, at 2:30pm for a special reception in collaboration with Student Engagement and Support for 𝘑𝘶𝘯𝘦𝘵𝘦𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘩: 𝘞𝘰𝘳𝘬𝘴 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘉𝘦𝘳𝘯𝘢𝘳𝘥 𝘈. 𝘡𝘶𝘤𝘬𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘯 𝘔𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘶𝘮 𝘰𝘧 𝘈𝘳𝘵 𝘗𝘦𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘊𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯!

This careful selection of artworks and their physical arrangement within the gallery is guided conceptually and visually by three major themes: Spirituality, Materiality, and Resilience. These topics are uniquely represented in the diverse concepts and varied media on display —the works of artist Renée Stout explore the personal nature of faith and embody spirituality by considering the unknown, the feminine, and the mystical as being divine; the work of Donté Hayes interrogates labor and process as being conceptually fundamental to the materiality of his poised and powerful physical artifacts; and finally, in If All Else Fails, Carrie Mae Weems portrays resilience in the repurposing of nautical signal flags as a gesture of solidarity as well as a cautionary preparation for unrest. This exhibition highlights the enduring strength of African Americans as exemplified by their lived experiences.

Free and open to all to attend!
