Details: | In celebration of its centennial, the Barnes Foundation has commissioned and will present Once Again (Statues Never Die), an immersive five-screen film installation by artist and filmmaker Isaac Julien, CBE RA (b. London, 1960). The work will explore the close relationship of our founder Dr. Albert C. Barnes, an early US collector and exhibitor of African material culture, and Alain Locke, cultural theorist and “Father of the Harlem Renaissance.” This poetic piece will elucidate Barnes and Locke’s decades-long relationship and mutually formative critical dialogue and its influence on their work as cultural critics, educators, organizers, and activists on behalf of various African American causes.
