Title
Clarice Smith Distinguished Lecture: Cauleen Smith
Description
On Wednesday, September 13, 2023, the Smithsonian American Art Museum hosted an artist talk with interdisciplinary artist Cauleen Smith. Smith explores African American identity through her work, particularly in films such as “Sojourner,” featured in SAAM’s exhibition “Musical Thinking: New Video Art and Sonic Strategies.” She describes her work as a reflection on “the everyday possibilities of the imagination,” drawing on poetry, Afrofuturism, science fiction, and tactics of experimental film to conjure alternative narratives and what the artist has called “a cornucopia of future histories.”
