Around Brooklyn: Brooklyn Museum to present outdoor videos
Brooklyn Museum to present outdoor videos
This fall, the Brooklyn Museum is presenting “Art on the Stoop: Sunset Screenings,” an outdoor exhibition of video art, Wednesday evenings through Sunday evenings. The two-hour-long screenings will continue through Nov. 8 and explore a variety of themes. Some of the videos were commissioned by the museum itself, such as Tournaline’s “Salacia” (2019), which explores the life of Mary Jones, a Black transgender woman of the early 19th century; Rashaad Newsome’s “KNOT” (2014), which examines ballroom culture and vogue dancing; and Marilyn Minter’s “Smash” (also 2014), which “evokes the power of feminism in shattering proverbial glass ceilings.”
