Artist Talk with Kameelah Janan Rasheed
Join us for a talk by interdisciplinary artist-educator and learner Kameelah Janan Rasheed. Rasheed explores themes of language, memory, and the production of Black knowledge through her large-scale text-based installations, videos, sound works, and drawings that interrogate historical narratives and archives.
Rasheed has had solo exhibitions at KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Berlin; the Art Institute of Chicago; and Kunstverein Hannover, among other institutions, and her awards include a 2021 Guggenheim Fellowship and 2022 Creative Capital grant. Additionally, she is the author of five artist books, founder of the consultant business and microgrant organization Orange Tangent Study, and founder of the digital archive Black Orbits.
Rasheed is one of the artists featured in the UAM’s exhibition History Lessons.
