“The...most perplexing problem is the evident pressure exerted on the Negro artist to use his art as an instrument to mirror the social injustices inflicted upon his people,” reads Romare Bearden’s seminal 1946 essay “The Negro Artist’s Dilemma.” We’ll revisit the artist’s perspective in conversation with conceptual and abstract artists of today, including the celebrated conceptual artist Lorraine O’Grady, abstract artist Suzanne Jackson, and abstract and calligraphy artist Shinique Smith.
This program is presented by the American Federation of Arts and the Gibbes Museum of Art on the occasion of the exhibition Romare Bearden: Abstraction.
