For Hannah Black and her fellow detractors, Parker Bright and Aria Dean among them, black suffering and its representations belong exclusively to black people. Both Schutz and her critics default to issues of ownership and group membership that reproduce, as Speidel points out, the very essentialism at the center of white supremacy.
What about the painting itself? Where, if at all, does it diverge or offend?

Additionally, the manipulation of the canvas, from brushstrokes to artifice, requires viewers to look closely in order to discern what is painterly effect and what is drawn from photographs of Till. Incidentally, Schutz sees this visual archive as analogous to the images of slain unarmed black men at the hands of law enforcement that circulated during the summer of when Schutz painted Open Casket.
The painting thus draws on and physically and aesthetically obscures actual events. From this angle, the work Open Casket performs centers on Schutz as a painter, not the loss of Till or the suffering of his mother. It pictures the limits of shared historical memory, of cross-racial empathy, of looking to the past to explain our political present. The works in Matter are an important meditation on the value of black bodies in the global visual imagination and the limits and possibilities of social transformation. This combination of conceptual projects, also known as Afrofuturism, is seen to bridge lost, traumatic black pasts with otherworldly, potentially reparative black futures.
Afrofuturism is an aesthetic and political mode of contemporary black expression that has gained considerable currency in popular and academic discourse since its introduction in the early s. During this time, the relationship between racial and technological progress—and the assumption that this relationship was a mutually beneficial one—inspired problematic visions of a raceless, placeless, genderless, and bodiless future. Imaginings of race-free futures, or worlds in which racial difference no longer matters, abound in the predominately white genres of science fiction literature and film.
Afrofuturism has been seen as a form of redress to these discursive currents. The success of the film, Black Panther , along with other recent films of predominantly black casts and futuristic themes— A Wrinkle in Time and Sorry to Bother You among them—has made Afrofuturism even more popular. For him, re-righting history is at once an act of revision, restorative justice, and racial healing. Lotus of , for example, transposes black degradation and debasement with transcendent visions of black futurity by juxtaposing slavery and Buddhism.
A lotus flower in full bloom is etched into a seven-and-a-half-foot-diameter, six-hundred-pound glass disc. This Buddhist symbol of enlightenment and purity of mind and spirit, however, contains more than meets the eye. Within each petal diagrams of bodies lined up in close proximity press against each other, a hand-carved gesture that relates the space of the petal to the cargo hold of a slave ship. The design for the diagrammed bodies derives from the cross-section of a slave ship that appears in an eighteenth-century British slaving manual.
Ahistorical Avant-Gardism and the Theater
The installation consisted of a full-room environment, repurposed quilts, and a video featuring a silver-painted figure that roams various landscapes in search of inner transformation and self-discovery. Church pews ranging from the typical wooden variety to ones rendered in translucent-colored plastic ascended towards the heavens as they receded from an altar formed by a starburst of organ pipes that emanated from a pile of old musical instruments.
A baby grand piano hung askew; the Lucite pews reflected the light coming through the windows to speckle the museum with bright; neon color, and sounds of the black diaspora—from Africa to Brazil—permeated the space. BAM , the video included in Matter , directs us toward the urgencies Copeland outlines. BAM features a sculpted figure dipped in thick brown wax being shot multiple times, an act so unnerving Biggers could not execute it himself; instead his cameraman, Raul, pulled the trigger.
Quick camera zooms from different angles and close-up shots accompany each of the bullet wounds, heightening the jarring nature of the violence the sculpture undergoes. The artist then recovered the mutilated figure and cast its remnants in bronze. Imagined as a disfigured memorial to named and unnamed victims of gun violence, the dismembered body was displayed on a pedestal in the gallery adjacent to the video.
The quilt is sewn from several antique quilts that Biggers has been collecting for decades. Attracted to the ready-made patterns and colors of the textiles, the artist sees the quilts as evocative backgrounds for his line drawings in which he relates cosmology to the black experience. Quilts have played an important role in black freedom struggles and within genealogies of black vernacular art. During the antebellum and postbellum periods, historians believe hand-sewn quilts were embedded with camouflaged images and words used to signal safe routes to escaping slaves headed north on the Underground Railroad.

Situated directly in front of the quilt, the large, vinyl artwork appears partially deflated on the floor. In its likeness to Fat Albert, a s cartoon character created and voiced by comedian Bill Cosby, the sculpture takes the form of a rotund black man with a short afro dressed in a bright red shirt and blue pants. The figure lies on its belly, arms at its sides, head turned with one ear pressed to the ground.
Animated by an electric pump, the body breathes, inhaling and exhaling to the point that it hovers just above the ground before the pump quits and the work descends slowly to its initial deflated state to begin again. Through The Cosby Show , Cosby cultivated black respectability by carefully crafting the narrative and public image for his fictional middle-class African American family. In , Cosby found himself in the media spotlight for different reasons. His history of sexual violence, long buried in silenced victims and sealed court documents, had finally surfaced, effectively obliterating his respectable public image.
Greenberg banishes illusionism from painting, the most illustrious of art forms, by insisting on the real and material plane. The avant-garde, with its original links to revolution, represents a denial of social norms, a turning away from bourgeois society toward an imagined Bohemia. This utopia was seen as a sanctuary, a world apart from capitalism and the forms of class conflict it catalyzes, not unlike the black radical imaginings at the core of Afrofuturism and other forms of black speculative thought.
Greenberg might appear to be an unlikely accomplice to marshal here. It has also been criticized for the very same reasons. It has, in other words, gone mainstream. Ezra Pound. Poems by Ezra Pound. Related Content. More About this Poet.
