FCCW NEWS
Yves B. Golden’s The Burden
We’re thrilled to announce the opening of our latest Artist In Residence exhibit this fall — a collection of sculptural works and a series of programs by Yves B. Golden, curated by Seta Morton. The Burden draws it’s title from a negro spiritual “Down by the Riverside,” an apt title for Golden, whose body of work both attends and surrenders to the fluidity of water and, with this exhibition, demands demilitarization. Within the traditions of Black feminist pedagogy as transformative praxis, The Burden aims to soften our senses while sharpening our teeth and tongues around the shape of disarmament.
Call For Photographers
This fall, we’re very much looking forward to inviting all of you to our new space, and in anticipation, we’re seeking talented photographers to document this new era of FCCW!
