SUMMARY:Blues People Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Blues People has always meant a great deal to me. It was a dramatic self-confirmation\, as a personal intellectual and artistic “presence\,” but also as the expression of a set of ideas and measures that I have carried with me for many years. Most\, even until today. –Amiri Baraka \nInspired by the 60th anniversary of the acclaimed book Blues People: Negro Music in White America by writer\, poet\, and political activist Leroi Jones\, who later renamed himself Amiri Baraka\, visual artists – Derrick Adams\, Adama Delphine Fawundu\, Adebunmi Gbadebo\, Cesar Melgar\, and Accra Shepp – have reimagined a pivotal work of theirs and created five newly commissioned art installations in Express Newark that explore what it means to be “Blues People” in the twenty-first century. \nOpening Reception: Tuesday\, February 20th 6:00pm – 9:00pm
