The Spelman College Museum of Fine Art "The Music, Movement and Migration Series" explores the interdependent role that music, visual art, and literature play in the social mobility of Black people, from the perspective of Black women cultural producers. Led by artist/scholar dj lynnée denise, this interactive lecture and performance series utilizes sound equipment and computer technology to investigate audio/visual illustrations of Black expressive culture. This program is presented in collaboration with the Spelman College Honors Program. The event is free and open to the public. For more information, call 404-270-5607.
"The Music, Movement and Migration Series" is held in conjunction with the exhibition "Posing Beauty in African American Culture." The exhibition delves into how present-day understanding about Black beauty has been informed by the works of contemporary artists and photographers as well as text and historical images published in newspapers and exhibited in galleries since the 1890s.
