The Modern Art Museum of Forth Worth will present "Surrealism and Us: A Symposium," organized by curator María Elena Ortiz and independent scholar Negarra A. Kudumu, with the support of Maria Barrientos, education administrator at the Modern.
Featuring artist's conversations and performances, the symposium is inspired by the themes of the special exhibition, including Suzanne Cesaire’s reflections on the utility of surrealism as a tool for liberation in Martinique and the broader Caribbean.
The symposium explores artistic production with participating artists and writers, focusing on contemporary Caribbean art along with notions of Surrealism, Afrosurrealism, and Afrofuturism through a series of discussions, a keynote address, and performance.
