APRIL PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS

ADULTS
Studio Salon: Neither Here nor Now with Adam Pendleton and Ralph Lemon
Thursday, April 28, 7–9PM

Join Triple Canopy and The Studio Museum in Harlem to celebrate the publication of On Value, a multifarious book about the value of ephemeral artworks, and the labor and bodies that make them. Adam Pendleton, On Value contributor, will be joined by choreographer and artist Ralph Lemon, who co-edited On Value alongside Triple Canopy. Lemon and Pendleton will discuss how they have each sought to transpose live events, whether dance performances or charged historical events, into publishable forms such as essays, visual artifacts, and print books.

On May 5–8, 1:54 Contemporary African Art Fair will head to Brooklyn for its second year! A reference to fifty-four countries that constitute the African continent, the title of 1:54 establishes the parameters of the fair’s ethos: as a platform that strives to represent multiplicity and showcase the diversity of contemporary African art and cultural production on an international stage. Don’t miss it!
