Join Rebecca Albiani on Saturday, January 10 at 2pm for an engaging look at the powerful photographic work of Carrie Mae Weems, featured in Tacoma Art Museum’s exhibition Gossip: Between Us.
A MacArthur “Genius” Grant recipient, Weems has spent more than forty years exploring identity, history, family, memory, and social justice through photography, text, video, installation, and performance. This talk will focus on two of her most influential bodies of work: Ain’t Jokin’, which confronts racist and sexist stereotypes embedded in everyday language and humor, and The Kitchen Table Series, her landmark black-and-white self-portraits exploring intimacy, gender roles, family relationships, and self-definition.
Together, we’ll consider how Weems uses image, text, and storytelling to challenge whose histories are remembered, whose stories are erased, and how art can reshape the way we see the world.
