The "Art" Of Black Visual Archives - Who Has Them? Where Are They?

For this panel, we assembled five of the nation’s top African American arts museum directors and curators for a thought provoking discussion on the role of history collectors versus history preservers as well as the historic role of the Studio Museum in Harlem, the Schomburg Library and other artistic and cultural organizations. From Jacob Lawrence to Bennie Andrews, the black visual arts archive has also been challenged to properly document the lives and careers of African American visual artists. The panel The “Art” of Black Visual Archives: Who Has Them? Where Are They? examines the importance of preserving and telling the history of black artists and photographers as well as other culturally important people, institutions and movements. Moderated by the Director of The Studio Museum in Harlem Thelma Golden, the discussion includes the founder of Chicago’s Rebuild Foundation, Theaster Gates, the Director of Los Angeles’ Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, Sandra Jackson-Dumont, the Director of the Perez Art Museum, Miami Franklin Sirmans, and African American photo historian, curator, and photographer, Deborah Willis. The panel also features a Q&A session with questions from The HistoryMakers ArtMakers Advisory Committee. This 90-minute program is scheduled to stream on YouTube and Facebook Live at 12:00 noon EST on Thursday, December 3, 2020 as the third installment of The HistoryMakers 20@2020: 20 Days and 20 Nights Convening and Celebration.
