Produktbeschreibung
Black Gold: Stories Untold, published to coincide with an exhibition of the same name, showcases recent and newly commissioned artworks reflecting on the resilience, struggles, and triumphs of African Americans who lived in California during its early statehood, from the dawn of the Gold Rush in 1848 to the era of Reconstruction following the American Civil War. The project highlights figures and events often omitted from California's history, including the presence of slavery and the struggle for legal rights within this "free" state, the successes of Black entrepreneurs, and the experiences of the African American army regiments known as the Buffalo Soldiers. Black Gold brings together an essay by the exhibitions curator, Cheryl Haines; an artist roundtable discussion moderated by Key Jo Lee, chief of curatorial affairs and public programs, Museum of the African Diaspora, San Francisco, CA; new and archival materials addressing California's hidden history of slavery and anti-Black legislation; and texts detailing the contributions of each of the exhibitions artists—including Demetri Broxton, Adam Davis, Mildred Howard, Sir Isaac Julien CBE, Trina M. Robinson, Alison Saar, Yinka Shonibare CBE, Bryan Keith Thomas, and Hank Willis Thomas. Black Gold: Stories Untold will be on view at San Francisco's historic Fort Point from June 4-November 1, 2025.
