Ladies First 2012: Our Expansion in Consciousness - A Celebration of Black Female Expression & Ceremony into Freedom Spiritual Dance @ the Brecht Forum, Friday 2/10, 6pm
Ladies First 2012” art exhibition at the Brecht Forum explores the ideas of the past and present: recognizing the iconic imagery of the Black femininity, while realizing the possibilities through ideas of Afrofuturism. During these trying times socially and economically, we hold the conversation of agency and colonialism when discussing our most recent attempts to “occupy” back our self respect and dignity.
The second annual “Ladies First” art exhibition is a continued celebration of Black female expression, bridging together to collective works of video art, performance, visual arts, workshops, panels, and film screenings. This is a time to acknowledge the Black women’s historical struggles and triumphs, while engaging a critical lens on our withstanding stereotypical visions of womanhood in our society.
Where/When: Friday, February 10th @ The Brecht Forum 451 West Street
New York, NY 10014
*Yours truly will be performing :)
