SUMMARY:Whose Memory Do You Carry?
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate the opening day of Edmonia Lewis: Said in Stone\, join exhibition curators and contemporary artists for a reflective conversation on Edmonia Lewis herself. As the first woman artist of Black and Indigenous descent to achieve widespread international acclaim\, Lewis was famous during her lifetime in the late 1800s. However\, her remarkable career and marble sculpture have largely remained underrecognized   until now.\n\nJoin us for this special occasion to hear artists Gisela Torres and Alberta Whittle discuss how Lewis' legacy inspires their own art making\, and hear scholar Melissa Ragain talk about her research into Lewis' transatlantic impact. Themes of memory\, absence\, endurance and transcendence will guide the discussion to celebrate Lewis' vision and the worlds she carved into being.
