Abstract
-
This class will operate in relationship to those efforts, as a one part research seminar, one part exhibition design lab, in order to aid in the 1) framing, 2) research, and 3) planning, and 4) design and creation of an exhibition and publication materials, using Harlem-related material, sites, and archives as the subject matter, while making connections to other geographies and critical questions of preservation, culture, and design.
Looking at texts and also emerging discourse of marginalized histories, forms of knowledge, culture, and place-making, this seminar proposes that we might begin to incorporate ideas of futurity, nontraditional archives, Blackness and diaspora, and cultural aesthetics to better articulate and understand what might be called Radical Preservation.
