Call & Response 2019

Summer & Fall 2019

Call & Response is a cumulative project that gathers a community of artists who share a commitment to the radical Black imagination as a means to re-examine the past and imagine a better future. Returning participants include textile artist Arianne King Comer, choreographer Reggie Wilson, interdisciplinary artist Portia Cobb, and chef and food scholar Scott Alves Barton. In 2019, we build the Call & Response community through residencies, exhibitions, performances, educational and public programs, and collaborations and site visits with new artists: visual artists Evelyn Patricia Terry and Rosemary Ollison; artist-in-residence and community organizer Kim Khaira; visual artist Daniel Minter; and performance collective Propelled Animals.
