Details

The Spring Lenhardt Lecture features multimedia artist Charles Gaines in conversation with Thelma Golden, Director and Chief Curator of the Studio Museum in Harlem. Following Gaines and Golden's conversation, visitors will experience Gaines' multi-sensory work Manifestos 3 (2018). The multimedia performance functions as a systematic transliteration of three revolutionary manifestos into musical notation: Martin Luther King, Jr.'s speech from 1967, Terry Adkins's Visionary Recital (1993), and James Baldwin's essay Princes and Powers (1957). The musical notations, as written and arranged for piano by Gaines, will be produced by Mads Falcone and performed by pianist Richard Valitutto. $5.
