Hab Oh & Mad Cohesive Present: AfroVisionaries Museum Field Trip

Saturday, December 13th, 2-6PM // Brooklyn Museum

It's time for us to get together for an artistic excursion, bring your sketchbook and your Black Joy! We're visiting the Brooklyn Museum to view the Seydou Keïta: A Tactile Lens exhibition.

"Organized by the Brooklyn Museum, the exhibition brings us to Bamako from the late 1940s to early 1960s, an era of profound political and social transformation. Collaborating closely with his sitters, Keïta recorded Mali’s evolution through their choices of backdrops, accessories, and apparel, from traditional finery to European suits. These bold yet sensitive photographs began to circulate in West Africa nearly 80 years ago. In the early 1990s, they reached Western viewers, rocking the art world and cementing Keïta as the premier studio photographer of 20th-century Africa—a peer of August Sander, Irving Penn, and Richard Avedon." - excerpt from Brooklyn Museum's website.
