Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | Recital' was conceived as a theatrical score that punctuates and demarcates space, creating interplay among pieces in different media and from diverse bodies of work. The works of art in 'Recital' pay homage to the legacies of a number of immortal and enigmatic figures such as Bessie Smith, W.E.B. Du Bois, John Brown, Matthew Henson, and John Coltrane, among others. Adkins's creative research not only intends to resuscitate his chosen subjects from historical erasure, but also to shed light on willfully neglected or lesser-known aspects of their biographies, such as Jimi Hendrix's military training as a paratrooper in the 101st Airborne, or the question of Beethoven's Moorish ancestry. In his sculpture, photography, and video, Adkins transforms and re-purposes a range of found materials, archival imagery, and reclaimed actions in a process that he calls potential disclosure. This book features detailed biographical information, an interview with the artist, and a selection of Adkins's writings |
