Description | Working to emulate the interdisciplinary artistic environment Jacob Lawrence experienced in his formative years, this exhibition explores a legacy of collaboration between artists and poets. artists & poets is a part of the re-grounding of the Jacob Lawrence Gallery in its mission of education, experimentation, and social justice. The show and space of the gallery will be spilt into two parts. The Cauleen Smith’s Wanda Coleman Songbook will function as the contemporary example of this great legacy of exchange between artists and poets. The other half of the exhibition will focus on Dudley Randall's Broadside Press which began in Detroit in 1966 and will pull from archives to capture the press's history and output. Gallery Hours: Tuesday – Friday 10am–5pm, Saturday 12–5pm |
