BOMBs Oral History Project Live!
Honoring contemporary artists represented in Circa 1970, this event celebrates the decade as a critical period in which artists deviated from conventional interpretations of art and explored new, radical ways of making.
This special program is presented in partnership with BOMB Magazine's Oral History Project, an initiative designed to highlight and preserve the legacies of cultural practitioners and artists of African descent based in New York. Showcasing the intricacies of oral history documentation, this program is the culmination of an intimate series of interviews between Circa 1970 artist James Little and Dr. LeRonn Brooks, Assistant Professor of African and African American Studies at CUNY. Together, the pair will discuss the experience of capturing an in-depth oral history. Unpacking James Little's established practice in Abstract Expressionism through firsthand accounts, the event traces his origins as a young artist all the way through to the contemporary issues he considers in his work today. The program will conclude with an audience Q+A followed by a walkthrough of the exhibition led by the artist.
