SUMMARY:Virtual Artist Conversation: Ghost of a Dream
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a virtual artist conversation between Ghost of a Dream\, the artistic collaboration of Lauren Was and Adam Eckstrom\, and the Ackland’s assistant curator for the collection Lauren Turner. Ghost of a Dream will discuss their commissioned installation for the Ackland\, Aligned by the Sun (through the revolution)\, as well as their larger body of work. \nThis program is presented in connection with UNC’s Arts Everywhere Day and its 2022 theme “Grounded Growth\,” which examines the role of art — especially the ways in which it was able to uplift and connect — during COVID. \nRegister for a free ticket for this Zoom webinar below. If you encounter registration issues\, please contact email us at acklandRSVP@unc.edu. \n— \nAbout Aligned by the Sun (through the revolution) \nAligned by the Sun (through the revolution) is a seven-channel video installation created specifically for the Ackland Art Museum that uses the formal positioning of the horizon line to connect each video of the sun. By overlaying images of a setting sun that align vastly different and often non-neighboring locations\, Ghost of a Dream’s Aligned by the Sun (through the revolution) offers entry points to important conversations around equality\, location\, migration\, and the environment. On view through July 3\, 2022.

SUMMARY:Collectors' Seminar: Building an Art Collection
DESCRIPTION:This program has been rescheduled from January 28th. Please join us on March 24th!\n \n— \nWith Drs. John and Nicole Dintenfass\, Moderated by Peter Nisbet \nJoin us for an intimate conversation with Drs. John and Nicole Dintenfass about their lifelong passion for collecting art\, the latest in a series of talks with collectors whose works have been on view at the Ackland. The Dintenfasses have collected art for an astonishing fifty-three years\, beginning with John’s medical residency in West Africa and continuing for several decades as the French and American couple traveled throughout the U.S. and Europe. Their varied collection is comprised of African metalwork — some of which can now be seen at the Ackland in our exhibition Peace\, Power & Prestige: Metal Arts in Africa — but also extends to wooden miniatures\, Chinese art\, and American paintings and coins. The Dintenfasses\, together in conversation with Deputy Director for Curatorial Affairs Peter Nisbet\, will discuss selected works from their African collection currently on view at the Museum\, talk about how they have built and refined their collection\, and share their thoughts on the psychology of collecting art\, the subject of a book they are currently writing. \nSpace is extremely limited at this in-person program and registration is required. Please reserve your free tickets below. \nIf you find yourself unable to attend\, please email acklandrsvp@unc.edu\, so that we may offer the space to others. \nThe Ackland Art Museum is operating under the guidelines of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. As of March 7\, 2022\, masks are optional in our galleries.

SUMMARY:Radical Healing and Decoloniality: Museums in Transition
DESCRIPTION:This talk by Amanda Maples\, Curator of African Art at the NC Museum of Art\, is part of UNC Chapel Hill’s African Studies Center’s Decolonizing African Studies Series.  \nWith the advent of global protests urgently calling for social justice and the end of systemic racism\, museums have been called upon to reflect on their own institutional histories and grapple with the role they have played in perpetuating stereotypes and inequities—both in gallery and collections representation\, and within their administration. A critical aspect of this relatively recent pursuit to decolonize includes facing the violence at play in colonial and imperial histories\, and making efforts towards reparations more broadly. Such momentum has catapulted museums into a period of transition and their responsibilities are fundamentally changing towards creating space for radical healing. \nRegister here for this free virtual talk! \nOrganized by the African Studies Center\, College of Arts and Sciences\, UNC-Chapel Hill.
