Inaugural 2020/2021 Curatorial Fellowship: Either Wrong or Right, Just Examine

"Art is Business"

Inspiring art education, exhibitions, and expression for all.
Inaugural 2020/2021 Curatorial Fellowship:
Either Wrong or Right, Just Examine
July 10 - September 5, 2021

Co-curated by inaugural 20/21 Curatorial Fellows:
Alpha M Bruton and Adero J Knott

Alpha M Bruton and Adero J Knott’s artistic vision entails an intergenerational curatorial practice that seeks to provide a model for emerging and established curators to innovate in curating inclusive experience, gain practical curating experience and critically reflect on how their curatorial style will imprint on the Evanston community and the world.

Throughout the exhibition, Bruton and Adero have invited artists to participate in a series of virtual dialogues. These dialogues explore ways artists examine their environment through themes of RacismSpiritualityDocumentation, and Art as Wellness, as well as the intersection of art and social justice – how does identity and intersectionality affect our lived experiences, as seen in the practice of an artist?

Let's look at one another again - freed from Zoom screens and lonely living rooms. Let’s see each other as humans in the 3-dimensional wild.

Come and join 10-min participatory drawing actions. Community performance artist Petra Kuppers invites people to create surreal contour drawings of one another, of dancing participants, and of quietly meditating ones. All materials provided, zero drawing experience necessary, grounded in disability culture values.

Enjoy spending a few minutes to look deeply at and witness another human being.
