SUMMARY:New York | Curator Guided Tour of Amant
DESCRIPTION:Join Ruth Estévez\, Amant’s Artistic Director for a private tour of The Amant Foundation’s 21\,000 square foot multi-building SO-IL designed “art campus” in East Williamsburg. Opened in June 2021\, the complex serves as Amant’s new headquarters\, as well as the home for its exhibitions\, public events\, archival projects\, performances\, and residency program. Conceived as a research and process-oriented platform\, Amant provides a public forum that presents and supports the practices of both established and under-recognized artists working across diverse creative fields. \n \nWe will also tour the inaugural exhibition\, “Grada Kilomba: Heroines\, Birds and Monsters” the first solo exhibition of the artist in the United States. Working with theory\, performance\, film\, and literature\, Kilomba reveals the narratives of the colonial past\, giving space to the silenced voices whose traumas are ever present. In her own words: “What if history has not been told properly? What if our history is haunted by cyclical violence precisely because it has not been buried properly?” \nThe tour will culminate with light snacks in the bookstore. Registrants will also receive a list of nearby restaurants where we can continue the conversation after the tour. \n  \nThis program is free and open to ArtTable members only. Not an ArtTable member? Join today! \nPlease read before registering:\nCovid-19 Guidelines: \nTo ensure a positive and safe experience\, and in keeping with the ‘Key to NYC’ requirements outlined by the New York City Mayor’s Office\, as well as CDC recommendations\, Amant adheres to the following protocols: \nFrom September 2nd\, Amant will require all visitors (12+) to show proof they have received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine authorized for emergency use by the FDA or WHO.
