SUMMARY:Films & Talk | Kehinde Wiley: An Economy of Grace & Bree Wayy: Promise\, Witness\, Remembrance with Director and Producer's Commentary
DESCRIPTION:$15 | $5 Parrish Members \nREGISTER \nHamptons Doc Fest and the Parrish Art Museum will present a program of two short films: one focusing on contemporary African American portrait artist Kehinde Wiley and the second on the works of art that sprang up in response to the tragic death of Breonna Taylor\, in particular\, a painting by Amy Sherald. Both films brilliantly celebrate the talent of two African American artists but tell their stories from very different perspectives. \nFollowing the film screenings\, we will host a live conversation via Zoom with director Dawn Porter\, who was honored with Hampton Doc Fest’s prestigious Pennebaker Award in December 2021\, and award-winning producer Jessica Chermayeff\, moderated by Corinne Erni\, Parrish Senior Curator of ArtsReach and Special Projects. \nKehinde Wiley: An Economy of Grace\n2014\, 38 min\, Director: Jeffrey Dupre\nProducers: Jessica Chermayeff\, Jeff Dupre\, Ana Veselic\nA PBS Production \nKnown for his vibrant reinterpretations of classical portraits featuring African American men\, New York-based painter Kehinde Wiley has turned the practice of portraiture on its head and in the process has taken the art world by storm. In the film\, Wiley turns his talents to African American women as part of his exploration of image and status of African Americans throughout history. As Wiley himself explained: “I am painting women in order to come to terms with the depictions of gender within the context of art history. One has to broaden the conversation.” The film won the Jury Prize at SXSW\, the Audience Award at Provincetown Film Festival was nominated for an Emmy\, and was shortlisted for an Academy Award. \n  \nBree Wayy: Promise\, Witness\, Remembrance\n2021\, 28 min\, Director: Dawn Porter\nProducers: Niema Jordan\, Kim Reynold\, Cubie King\nMTV Documentary Films \nAfter the tragic death of Breonna Taylor\, artists all over the country found solace by creating works of art to pay tribute to the life and light of the 26-year-old EMT and budding nurse killed by the police. This includes renowned painter\, Amy Sherald\, whose portrait of Breonna is the centerpiece of the Speed Art Museum’s exhibition\, Promise\, Witness\, Remembrance\, shown in Breonna’s hometown of Louisville\, Kentucky. The film pays homage to art and creativity as a way to protest injustice and create a space to heal\, led by the indomitable spirit and love of Breonna’s mother\, Tamika Palmer. \n  \nAdvance ticket purchase with pre-event registration is recommended. Limited tickets will be available at the door. All sales are final\, non-transferable\, and non-refundable.\nThis indoor event requires all attendees to wear medical-grade masks at all times and show proof of vaccination; those 18 and older must provide a valid ID.
