Julius Eastman: A Recollection. + Predicated.
Presented by Bowerbird and Slought, curated by Tiona Nekkia McClodden, as part of Julius Eastman: That Which Is Fundamental.
A Recollection. and Predicated. feature archival traces and work by ten contemporary artists that engage with Julius Eastman and the fragmented nature of his legacy. A Recollection. approaches a historical exploration and remembrance of Eastman as a master of artifice, while Predicated., an exhibition in conversation with the work of Julius Eastman, explores notions of absence, trace presence, duration, the politics of exhaustion, and the interplay between composition and improvisation through video, sculpture and photography.
On view: May 4 to May 28, 2017
Location: Slought, 4017 Walnut Street, Philadelphia
Major support for That Which Is Fundamental has been provided by The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage, with additional support from the Presser Foundation, the Aaron Copland Fund, the Musical Fund Society of Philadelphia, and the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts.
