The Artist's Eye @ BAMPFA: March 19-July 17, 2022

March 11, 2022 Lava Thomas

The Artist's Eye opens to the public on March 19th (Member Preview Days: March 17-18th) at the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive! I am thrilled that the exhibition will finally open after postponements due to Covid.

The exhibition offers a fresh perspective on BAMPFA's permanent collection, with curated selections by artists Tammy Rae Carland, David Huffman, John Zurrier, and myself. My curated section commemorates the 50th anniversary of Betye Saar's The Liberation of Aunt Jemima, with a selection of works by a multigenerational group of Black women artists. In addition to our individually curated galleries, we will each exhibit our own work. This is my first curatorial role at a museum, and I'm also presenting new work created especially for the exhibition.

Learn more about the exhibition by visiting www.bampfa.org.
