Paintings to Challenge Perceptions of Equality - Artist Talk by Samuel Levi Jones - Art and Journalism Building, Room 225Free and open to the public
Samuel Levi Jones’ multidisciplinary practice includes making patchworked paintings and installations to challenge people’s perceptions of authority, exclusion, and equality. He explores the framing of power structures and struggles between exclusion and equality by desecrating historical material, then reimagining new works. He is the recipient of the 2014 Joyce Alexander Wein artist prize awarded to him by the Studio Museum in Harlem, NY — an annual award honoring emerging or mid-career African American artists. His work is in prominent private and public collections including the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art (SF MOMA); The Whitney Museum of American Art, NY; The Rubell Family Collection, Miami, FL; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, CA; the Studio Museum in Harlem, NY; the Art Institute of Chicago, IL; and the Indianapolis Museum of Art at Newfields, IN.
Faculty Sponsor: Audrey Barcio, Assistant Professor of Art (Painting)
Cosponsored by the BSU Multicultural Center
