SUMMARY:Artist's Talk with Georges Adéagbo
DESCRIPTION:Artist’s Talk with Georges Adéagbo\nChesterwood \nTickets include post-talk reception and musical performance by HEARD world jazz ensemble! \nAward-winning African artist Georges Adéagbo (born in 1942 in Cotonou\, Benin) known world-wide for his found-object installations will speak about his site-specific installation at Chesterwood. “Create to Free Yourselves: Abraham Lincoln and the History of Freeing the Slaves in America” was originally developed for President Lincoln’s Cottage\, the home where the president lived and developed the Emancipation Proclamation in Washington D.C. This exhibition\, which explores themes of freedom and bondage\, developed out of a residency with the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African Art. \nAdéagbo\, who has long been personally interested in Lincoln as an icon of emancipation\, was invited to Chesterwood to view the 6′ model of the seated Abraham Lincoln and the many Lincoln related objects that Daniel Chester French owned such as Lincoln’s life-mask and hand casts. Back in Benin\, Adéagbo worked with local artists to create new items for the exhibition based on his visit and photos from Chesterwood’s archives. \nThe exhibition\, which debuted at President Lincoln’s Cottage in February 2023\, will be brought to Chesterwood in July where it will be reimagined by Adéagbo when he installs the objects within the historic studio and Morris studio. \nThe installation process is made possible by Stephan Köhler of Kulturforum Sud-Nord. \nPrices\nFree | Chesterwood Members\n$25 | Adults\nFree | Children Free for 18 and under!\nFree | BBEC Members (use promo code BBEC)
