ブルックリン美術館さんのインスタグラム動画 - (ブルックリン美術館Instagram)「For more than 30 years, Liz Johnson Artur (@lizjohnsonartur) has been photographing people mainly from the African diaspora as part of her ongoing Black Balloon Archive project. In AfroRussia, which she completed for her solo exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum in 2019, the London-based artist documents the stories of Russians of African and Caribbean descent and explores the complicated nature of identity. Like Johnson Artur, many were born to Russian mothers and African or Caribbean fathers who studied in Eastern Europe as part of the Soviet Union’s efforts to expand its influence during the Cold War as nations gained independence from European colonialism. After meeting and filming numerous subjects, Johnson Artur says, “We all agreed that we felt Russian as well as African.” ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Tune in today at noon on IG Live to get some Screen Time with Artur and curator Drew Sawyer (@drewmsawyer) where they will chat about this work, and more. If you have a question for the artist, leave it in the comments below. ⁠⠀ This is the last weekend to watch works by Artur and twelve other artists from our video art collection, as part of the first program in our Art on the Stoop #SunsetScreenings series. Stop by the plaza now through Sunday—screenings begin at 6pm.⁠ Next week we’ll announce our second program lineup, featuring a new roster of artists that will be on view October 14–November 8. Stay tuned!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Liz Johnson Artur (Ghanian Russian, born Sofia, Bulgaria, 1964) AfroRussia, 2019 [Excerpt]. Single-channel video (color, sound): 13 min., 45 sec.
