22: Both/And: Lorraine O’Grady’s Disruptive Force
The uncanny is an unsettling experience, bringing to light that which has been hidden underneath the surface. Artist Lorraine O’Grady is an agent of this unsettling effect. Throughout her prolific career, Lorraine O’Grady has used her art to challenge boundaries imposed upon Black Artists and to problematize binary thinking. In this week’s episode of Tomorrow is the Problem, Host Dr. Donna Honarpisheh sits down with Dr. Stephanie Sparling Williams, the Andrew W. Mellon Curator of American Art at the Brooklyn Museum, and Harry Burke, an art critic and PhD candidate at Yale University, to discuss Lorraine O’Grady’s work.Audio excerpts of Lorraine O’Grady from the 2018 Soul of A Nation symposium, an event hosted by the Tate Modern and Crystal Bridges MuseumTomorrow is the Problem is brought to you by the Knight Foundation Art + Research Center and is produced in partnership with FRQNCY Media.
