Overview
Venturing Out of the Heart of Darkness examines the long-standing impact of colonialism on prevailing societal attitudes that define black culture in America and in the world. Stirred by Joseph Conrad’s 1899 novel, Heart of Darkness, Curator Rehema C. Barber has assembled a riveting artistic response to the tale which looks at how the Empire has defined and thereby influenced the development of economic, linguistic, mythological and psychological systems and ideologies that inform contemporary notions of blackness.
The exhibition includes works by national and international artists representative of the African Diaspora including:
● Leonardo Benzant ● Zoe Charlton
● Andrea Chung ● Willie Cole
● Bethany Collins ● Nathaniel Donnett
● Ken Gonzales-Day ● Heather Hart and André D. Singleton
● Sean M. Johnson ● JC Lenochan
● Shaun Leonardo ● Serge Alain Nitegeka
● Jason Patterson ● Yinka Shonibare
● Renee Stout ● Pamela Phatsimo Sunstrum
● Wilmer Wilson IV ● Saya Woolfalk
