我写下你的名字,第三部分:USJ的阿米斯塔德中心

2014年9月13日- 12月14日

This exhibition is the third and largest installment of works from the Amistad Center for Art & Culture that is being shown at the 艺术博物馆, USJ while The Amistad Center’s galleries at the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art are closed for renovation. The Amistad Center’s collection of art, artifacts, and popular culture objects document the experience, expressions, and history of people of African descent. The selection of works on view at the 艺术博物馆 not only resonates with the USJ School of Humanities and Social Sciences’ 2014-15 academic year theme, “Peace and Human Rights,” but also provides the opportunity for “dialogue” with works from the 艺术博物馆’s permanent collection. Among the Amistad Center’s works in I Write Your Name Part III are prints by Richard Hunt, Jacob Lawrence, and Benny Andrews as well as photographs by Carrie Mae Weems, Timothy Greenfield-Sanders, Lorna Simpson, and Addison N. Scurlock. 除了Hank Willis Thomas和Ryan Alexiev的摄影作品外,展览还展出了Richmond barth<s:1>和Willie Cole的雕塑作品。 来自USJ艺术博物馆的精选作品包括Jacob Lawrence, Richard Hunt, Betye Saar和Faith Ringgold的作品。 《我写下你的名字》的部分资助来自爱德华·c·和安·t·罗伯茨基金会。

《明镜下:刘勃麟摄影

July 9 – August 31

中国当代艺术家刘勃麟因将自己伪装在背景中而闻名于世。 Often called the “Invisible Man,” he exposes tensions between society’s rapidly-changing environment and the individual. Noting that the backgrounds he chooses show the many social problems that have emerged in the course of China’s modern development, he states “from my perspective, the meaning of human beings has been constantly annihilated in modern society. While the living environment is improving, people are effacing themselves — what a great contradiction!” With each new work he asks himself “Why would making myself invisible here cause people to think?”

博物馆讲座:8月6日(星期三)下午5:30,随后是招待会。
