Blackives: A Celebration of Black History at 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网

The Blackives remembers the stories of promising young black artists who attempted to study at 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网, from 1891 to 1958, but could not because of the color of their skin.

Date
February 25, 2019 – March 28, 2019
Location
Main Building
Atrium
1300 W Mount Royal Ave
A collection of photographs of black 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网 students and alumni

The physical collection consists of local documentation, inspired imagery, and found artifacts. While the information presented is authentic, drawn from database and special collections, the artifacts on view are actually reproductions. The facsimiles are inkjet-printed newspapers—scaled to size, stained and distressed to emphasize the continued weathering and neglect of black history by 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网.

The Maryland Institute Black Archives revives the voices of past silenced artists by providing access to the experiences of the current black student body.
