新书发布暨与电影制作人、艺术家和作家阿德里安-伯瑞尔的对话

Third-generation Bay Area filmmaker, artist, and author, Adrian L. Burrell will present select works from his first monograph, Sugarcane & Lighting (Minor Matters, 2023) and his latest short film, The Saints Step in Kongo Time.

这本书和电影，以及最近分别于 2023 年在圣何塞和旧金山举办的两次个展， ，都是正在进行的 研究项目的一部分，该项目将伯雷尔家族在路易斯安那购地后的种植业和制糖业经历视觉化。通过档案和当代照片，图像跨越塞内加尔、吉姆克劳路易斯安那州和现代奥克兰，打破了长期以来关于实现美国梦的陈规陋习。  

治愈过去的可能性，以及实现对现在和未来的憧憬，是布瑞尔创作的动力。

演讲结束后，将与 OMCA 的策展事务副总监Makeda Best 进行对话。伯雷尔的新书可供购买和签名。

This event is free and open to the public with advanced registration

About Adrian Burrell

Adrian Burrell (b. 1990, Oakland, California) is a third-generation Oakland artist utilizing photography, film, installation and experimental media. His work examines issues of race, class, and intergenerational dynamics, inviting moments where collective storytelling can be a site for remembering. 

Burrell has lived and worked on four continents. He is a US Marine Corps veteran, and a graduate of San Francisco Art Institute (BFA, film) and Stanford University (MFA, Department of Art & Art History). At Stanford he lectured, served as the Black Graduate Student Community Outreach Chair, and was a visiting artist with Stanford’s Institute for Diversity in the Arts.

He is also a resident at SF FILM, was a YBCA Creative Cohort fellow (2021-22), and was selected for the renowned Black Rock Residency in Dakar, Senegal, in 2022.

His first solo exhibition was on view at the ICA San Jose, California, from 9月 16, 2022–2月 26, 2023; his second solo exhibition, also in the Bay Area, was on view at the Minnesota Street Project in San Francisco from 10月 to 12月, 2023. His work has recently been featured at the Format Festival in Darby, United Kingdom, and at Fotofest in Houston. Burrell’s work has been featured through The New Yorker, BlackStar Film Festival, and PopUp Magazine (2022); Photoville, New York and the Pingyao International Photography Festival, China (2020); and at SXSW (2013), among others. In 2021, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art acquired “It’s After the End of the World, Don’t You Know That Yet?” This collective self-portrait examines normalized violence inflicted on Black lives.
