In Conversation: The Evidence of Things Unseen, Sam Gilliam and Al Loving Then and Now
March 24, 2019 - 3:00pm to 4:00pm
Abstraction, Color, and Politics in the Early 1970's explore intersections of social justice, race and gender through the large scale, abstract works of the artists.
Join Larry M. Gant, Professor of Social Work for his take on the large-scale abstract works of Al Loving and Sam Gilliam. Gant explores the challenges and controversies experienced by the artists, suggesting ways that their approaches have and continue to generate, in the words of James Baldwin, “the evidence of things unseen."
The program is free, but registration is required.
