✊🏿🎼🎨🎹 #ArtIsAWeapon 📢#NewExhibit Catch Kara Walker’s (@kara_walker_official) Katastwóf Karavan with Jason Moran (@thejasonmoran) at the The Whitney Museum of American Art (@whitneymuseum) this Saturday, October 12, 1:00PM – 6:30PM! Whitney Museum 99 Gansevoort Street, #NYC _________________________ Reposted from @sikkemajenkins - Please join us for the New York debut of the Katastwóf Karavan, a steam-powered calliope housed in a parade wagon that will be installed and activated outside the #museum for a one-day-only presentation. Featuring the steam whistle typical of a calliope, the custom-fabricated instrument is programmed by #KaraWalker with a compilation of #jazz, #gospel, and #songs that, in Walker’s words, represent both “Black protest and celebration.” Walker created Katastwóf Karavan for the Prospect.4 Triennial in New Orleans as a site-specific commission. Through collaboration together and between #image and #sound, Walker and #JasonMoran create an alternative register—with “music as bearer of our emotional history,” as Walker describes—for those catastrophic forces that have shaped culture into the present...The calliope will play at set times throughout the afternoon on the Museum’s outdoor largo. Moran himself will play the calliope live at 6PM. This event is free. Presented in conjunction with Jason Moran’s solo exhibition. _________________________ Image: Kara Walker, The Katastwóf Karavan, 2017 (Installation view, Prospect.4: The Lotus in Spite of the Swamp, Prospect New Orleans, New Orleans, Louisiana, 2018).
