Tour | Another Justice: US is Them

Led by Brianna Hernández, Curatorial Fellow

July 29, 2022, 5 pm - 5:45 pm

REGISTER | 5 PM  REGISTER | 6 PM

Join us at the Parrish for a gallery tour of Another Justice: US is Them—Hank Willis Thomas | For Freedoms with Curatorial Fellow, Brianna L. Hernández. Tours will begin at 5 PM and 6 PM in the Museum lobby.

The Parrish Art Museum has invited Hank Willis Thomas, a conceptual artist working with themes related to identity, commodity, media, and popular culture, and For Freedoms–the artist coalition he co-founded to model and increase creative civic engagement, discourse, and direct action—to consider the Museum as a site for works that encourage new ways to experience art, architecture, landscape, and community. On view in the Parrish galleries, outdoors on the Museum grounds, and as digital billboards on the Shinnecock Monuments on Sunrise Highway, Another Justice: US is Them includes nearly 30 works by 12 contemporary artists—many created specifically for the exhibition—in mixed media, sculpture, site-specific installation, wall painting, and photography.

Artists include Zoë Buckman, Pamela Council, Jeremy Dennis, Jeffrey Gibson, Eric Gottesman, Christine Sun Kim, Muna Malik, Joiri Minaya, Koyoltzintli Miranda-Rivadeneira, Kambui Olujimi, Hank Willis Thomas, and Marie Watt.

Another Justice: US is Them is organized by Corinne Erni, Senior Curator of ArtsReach and Special Projects, with support from Brianna Hernández, Curatorial Fellow, and is co-curated by Hank Willis Thomas and Carly Fischer.

Brianna L. Hernández is a Chicana artist, curator, educator, and death doula guided by socially engaged practices. In developing as an artist Brianna credits her late mother, Sylvia D. Hernández, as her most significant mentor. In the studio, Brianna focuses on end-of-life care, grieving processes, and mourning rituals based on lived experience, cultural research, and collaborations with peers. As a curator, Brianna works with artists to make socially-charged topics publicly accessible in order to create opportunities for education and empathy. In addition to her role as Curatorial Fellow at the Parrish, Brianna proudly serves as Curator and Board Secretary of Ma’s House & BIPOC Art Studio on the Shinnecock Indian Reservation in Southampton, New York.
