Details

Untitled is a collaborative dance and photography-based activation of Atlanta’s libraries, archives, and rare bookstores by Anicka Austin and Sierra King. Dance performances and virtual and physical photographs reflect their archival research and speculative storytelling on the lives and work of Lucille Clifton, Carmen de Lavallade, and Katherine Dunham. The project intends to illuminate the archive as a site of meditation on the lives of Black women artists.

Solo and group performances by Arneshuia Nelson, Charray Helton and Erin Burch, fashion by PhaeMonae.

May 17-19: solo performances at For Keeps Books

May 22-23: trio performances at the Auburn Avenue Research Library

Untitled is supported by an Arts and Entertainment Atlanta Grant from Atlanta Downtown Improvement District and a Nexus Grant from Atlanta Contemporary Arts Center.
