Oletha DeVane is a way finder and a storyteller. Over the last five decades, as she has traveled in Asia, Africa, and the Caribbean, she has been inspired by the stories and characters she encounters, bringing the unexpected to light, while finding new nuances in the old and familiar. Her aesthetic impulses are driven by what critic and curator Angela Carroll describes as “anticolonial liberation efforts, Juneteenth, the legacy of her father, and humanity’s tireless existentialism.” Join her for an intimate artist talk as she shares stories from her life as a traveler, artist, and activist. Enjoy a feast of chicken wings while you bask in the presence of this legendary artist!
