SUMMARY:New MississippiS: Some Situated Stories on Contemporary Ecologies
DESCRIPTION:Join for a Live Talk “Some Situated Stories on Contemporary Ecologies” featuring Dr. Maurita Poole\, (Director and Chief Curator of Clark Atlanta University Art Museum)\, Clémence Hallé (Researcher and Writer) and Duncan Evennou (Theater Maker and Performer). \nIn these times of planetary troubles\, they believe that works of art and archives can help tell historically situated and pluralized stories about contemporary ecological issues. Using the South of the Mississippi River as an emblem of the markers of environmental problems\, they consider the intersection between exploitation\, ecologies\, and people in two locales in the American South. This project New MississippiS is a digital and artistic reading of multiple museums’ archives and collections. \nIn this multi-sited project\, ecologies is examined in terms of its literal and symbolic meanings. The specific materials utilized include: recordings of an international cultural institution’s project along the River;  readings of Southern writers Margaret Walker and Richard Wright; and selected works from collections at historically black institutions in Georgia and Mississippi. \nThe first public event will consist of a presentation of the overall project\, its origins and its protocols\, as well as the launch of the online platform on which the materials will be read and contextualised by a performer and the organisers. Assembled in a series of podcasts\, these audios and its images will give a taste of the story behind the curatorial process of New Mississippis. \nThis event is organized by the Clark Atlanta University Art Museum\, Jackson State University’s Margaret Walker Center\, Augusta University and the Lighthouse Company with the support of the Atlanta Office of the Cultural Services of the Embassy of France in the United States and FACE Contemporary Theater.
