featuring the work of Fl<\/em>\u00e2neuse, Endia Beal, and Kenya (Robinson)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Three artists contribute to America\u2019s current discourse of race, identity and power by examining identities of blackness, whiteness and gender. The work in this exhibition asks: What does the \u201cauthentic self\u201d mean? Where are the lines drawn between appropriation, caricature and performance? And how does the power of privilege operate? \u201cINTER\/ACTIVE\u201d communication is an exchange of ideas where artist and viewer are active and can have an effect upon one another. And the art works in the show are literally interactive, encouraging gallery visitors to physically interact with the pieces in a dynamic, two-way flow of information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Photographer Endia Beal has been celebrated in several online editorials, including NBC, BET, the Huffington Post, Slate and National Geographic. Her videos and photographs have been exhibited extensively in the United States and \u201cbridge the gaps and increase our social awareness.\u201d Kenya (Robinson) has been featured in the New York Times, a contributor to the Huffington Post, and exhibited in MoMA (NYC), PS1 and The Kitchen. She has created a special interactive sound installation for this exhibition using \u201cDave\u201d from her #whitemaninmypocket series. And poet, film maker and artist Fl\u00e2neuse creates a movable word installation that\u2014with your help\u2014is new every day.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n Note: This exhibition contains content for mature audiences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
