ASIAN AND AFRICAN AMERICAN ART AT THE WALLACH

Harlem Bespoke: Dead Lecturer/distant relative: Notes from the Woodshed, 1950-1980 focuses on works by Asian American and African American artists whose approaches to abstraction provided alternatives to prevailing vocabularies for representation and resistance during the social movements of the 1960s and 70s, and for whom the parameters of visibility continue to remain a problem for thought today

From July 9th-October 1st, Dead Lecturer/distant relative exhibit at the Wallach Gallery, 615 West 125th Street, west of Broadway. Dead Lecturer/distant relative gathers an archive of visual art and poetics to pose questions about the relationship between loss and kinship, between history and memory, and between race and abstraction. How do we recall the voices of those for whom art history has never represented either a reliable record or the proper horizon of address.  Free admission and open to the public from Wednesday through Sunday:  LINK
