I am excited to start work on a film for a great new exhibition. For this work I will be working with the paintings of tools and labor which Jacob Lawrence depicted in his paintings from the late 1940's to the end of his life in 2000.

Between Form and Content: Perspectives on Jacob Lawrence and Black Mountain College

September 28, 2018 – January 2019 {120 College Street}
Curated by Julie Levin Caro and Jeff Arnal

Between Form and Content aims to bring to light the larger artistic and educational projects in which Lawrence, his wife Gwendolyn Knight Lawrence, and other BMC faculty members and students were engaged at the 1946 Summer Art Institute, projects never before previously revealed. In addition to Lawrence’s paintings, the exhibition will feature artworks by Gwendolyn Knight Lawrence, Josef and Anni Albers, Leo Amino, Jean Varda, Ruth Asawa, and Beaumont and Nancy Newhall. Another focal point of the show will be the partial recreation of an exhibition of Lawrence's paintings displayed at BMC that summer. Three international working artists—animator/filmmaker Martha Coburn, composer/performer Tyondai Braxton, and music curator/writer Jace Clayton (DJ Rupture)—will expand pathways into Lawrence's paintings through original commissions.
