SUMMARY:DiverseWorks on Wednesdays
DESCRIPTION:Artist’s Talk with Wura-Natasha Ogunji\nAustin-based artist Wura-Natasha Ogunji will discuss her Idea Fund performance project\, one hundred black women\, one hundred actions\, which is included in Six of one\, half a dozen of the other through photo documentation. \none hundred black women\, one hundred actions premiered April 24\, 2010 in Austin\, Texas as part of Fusebox Festival. Black women from around the world were asked to submit an action or gesture of power. These movements were then performed by one hundred black women in east Austin along with a simultaneous live outdoor projection in Clarksville\, west of downtown. The sites for the performance were chosen due to their significance to the history of Austin and specifically to honor and recognize the history of black people in the city. The project performed movements across borders and geographies to envision a cumulative\, collective action translated into a site-specific performance with the weight and critical mass of one hundred black women\, thereby invoking shared power and presence.
