El Anatsui:
Giving voice to humanity’s struggles for survival
and interdependence through creative exploration
of our material remains
A VIRTUAL PRESENTATION BY
ERNEST MUJICA, PhD
Thursday, January 5, 2023,
online from 1:30-3pm
Dr. Mujica will review the work of Ghanian sculptor El Anatsui, whose large scale installations convey a deep appreciation of our impact on our environment and on one another. His work transforms the concrete remains of everyday, often discarded objects, into abstract conceptualizations of mutuality and interdependence. He also creatively explores the experiential and aesthetic transformations that are interwoven within the complex fabric of community and migration, as well as consumerism and slavery.
