In conjunction with Archaeology of the Present, the St. Louis-based artist Kahlil Robert Irving has selected seven contemporary video works that will screen in the Kemper Art Museum’s Video Gallery. Highlighting intimate moments, and celebrating a range of artistic tools and practices, these videos emphasize the everyday lives and presence of Black people, underscoring, as Irving states, that no matter the setting, “We are still here.” TONY COKES's 1992 artwork, The Book of Love, will be on view, alongside works by Lyndon Barrois Jr. and Addoley Dzegede, Cameron Downey, Charles H. Lee, William M. Morris, Jefferson Pinder and Tiffany J. Sutton. For more information on the exhibition, please visit the Kemper Art Museum's website.
