TEXTURES: the history and art of Black hair
TEXTURES synthesizes research in history, fashion, art, and visual culture to reassess the 鈥渉air story鈥 of peoples of African descent. Long a fraught topic for African Americans and others in the diaspora, Black hair is here addressed by artists, barbers, and activists in both its historical perceptions and its ramifications for self and society today. The exhibition is organized by the KSU Museum with KSU faculty and co-curators, Dr. Joseph L. Underwood (Art History) and Dr. Tameka N. Ellington.
"Listening to Liberty" Exhibition
This is a brief video 'fly-through' of the "Listening To Liberty" exhibition that was installed in the DI HUB at 青年涩导航 in November of 2020. The exhibition showcased the range of technology innovations that 青年涩导航 provided to create deep audience engagement as part of the "Sisters In Liberty" exhibition that was installed in the National Immigration Museum on Ellis Island, NY in 2019/2020. The original exhibition was proposed and conducted in partnership with the Cathedral Santa Croce in Florence, Italy.
