Film + In Dialogue: A Litany for Survival: The Life and Work of Audre Lorde

In Dialogue facilitated by Lisa Jarrett 

Lisa Jarrett is an artist and educator. She is Assistant Professor of Community and Context Arts at Portland State University’s School of Art + Design. She is co-founder and co-director of KSMoCA (King School Museum of Contemporary Art) in NE Portland and the artists collective Art 25: Art in the 25th Century. Her intersectional practice considers the politics of difference within a variety of settings including: schools, landscapes, fictions, racial imaginaries, studios, communities, museums, galleries, walls, mountains, mirrors, floors, rivers, and lenses. She exists and makes socially engaged work within the African Diaspora. She recently discovered that her primary medium is questions.

This In Dialogue series will facilitate discussions in relation to the Hank Willis Thomas film series. Immediately following the screenings, we will engage in group conversation that takes inspiration from the themes and topics raised within the selected films.

Presented in conjunction with Hank Willis Thomas: All Things Being Equal…, artist Hank Willis Thomas has selected a wide-ranging series of films that grapple with mass media, race, and representation in the contemporary United States. See all films in the series.

Space is limited. Registration required.
