Place is the Space: Recasting Black Presence and Power Through Art

In conjunction with its “Balthazar: A Black African King in Medieval and Renaissance Art” exhibit, The Getty presents a conversation between alter-ego selfie artist Genevieve Gaignard and multimedia collager Rashaad Newsome, moderated by Tyree Boyd-Pates, curator of Western history at the Autry Museum. The pair will talk about why and how they create space for black histories in their work. They’ll discuss notions of power, absence, erasure and reclaiming history in the African diaspora both in and out of museums.
