Here and Now: African and African American Art and Film Conference focuses
on contemporary expressions in art and cinema from multiple perspectives
within the realm of African and African American visual culture. This
four-day conference looks at how African and African American artists
interpreted, documented, chronicled, and created images over the last twenty
years. By re-examining visual history through the voices of artists, art
historians, filmmakers, photographers, activists, editors, writers,
collectors and gallerists, “Here and Now” encourages a diverse perspective
of the imagery created in the 21st century. For more information and a
