In less than a month, join us for the 2024 Leo and Betty Beckwith Lecture: American Artist, co-presented with the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Date: Thursday, October 10 American Artist makes thought experiments that mine the history of technology, race, and knowledge production, beginning with their legal name change in 2013. Their artwork primarily takes the form of sculpture, software, and video—interactive installations that explore the pervasiveness of AI-driven surveillance, website interventions that speak to contemporary conditions of protest, and fictional films that contend with predictive policing that reproduces racial biases. |
