Commodity, Aspiration & Opulence: Painting as a Space for Imagination

When We See Us Panel Discussion takes place this Saturday 6 May at Zeiz MOCAA and the topic is Commodity, Aspiration & Opulence: Painting as a Space for Imagination.

In this second in-person public programme related to When We See Us: A Century of Black Figuration in Painting, multi-generational artists featured in the exhibition will explore how the medium of painting can expand the space of imagination. The conversation will furthermore provide insight into the role that commodification, aspiration and opulence play therein and invite the participating artists to consider the power of painting as a medium.

Running until 3 September, When We See Us: A Century of Black Figuration in Painting is accompanied by a webinar series and an extensive publication of the same name. When We See Us attempts to unveil the deeper historic contexts and networks of a complex and underrepresented genealogy that stems from African and Black modernities and spans several generations from the early 20th century to the present.

Zeitz MOCAA’s curatorial and exhibition programming is generously supported by Gucci.
