MANY AMERICAS: ART MEETS HISTORY
To develop MANY AMERICAS, guest curator Ric Kasini Kadour undertook an eighteen-month-long research project funded by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts that examined the intersection of history and contemporary art.
Inspired by Ronald Takaki’s A Different Mirror, the Many Americas exhibition and public programming takes as a premise that we do not share a common history and our divergent histories are the source of our troubled civic discourse. Each of the artworks in the exhibition uses history as their point of departure and speaks to present day issues. The artworks demonstrate the multiple, sometimes competing histories of America. The exhibition featured approximately two dozen artworks and installations and a variety of audience engagement approaches including CoCo Harris' We Pledge journal for the patrons to engage and inscribe. In doing this, we seek to demonstrate how an art museum can become a public square where people can come together and talk about important civic issues.
Please visit Curator Ric Kasini Kadour’s companion website where he shares longer commentaries about artwork and the history they reference as well as links to additional media and resources.

DRAPETOMANIA'S TALE
Drapetomania’s Tale is a multimedia visual narrative exploring the legend of Igbo Landing through the artist’s speculative-fictive lens. Drapetomania’s is a tale of resistance and renewal. Based on actual historical events, this series interrogates this African American folklore of coastal Georgia in revisionist and curative framework.

Smith Gallery, Yale Divinity School
Collage and multimedia works by CoCo Harris such as Liberating Souls I and II, and Upended Souls (below) were included in this exhibition illuminating the visual discourse on the metamorphosing, early 20th Century Black woman.
