Opening on April 30th at 6PM, Cheyney’s McKnight’s “The Ancestor’s Future: An Afrofuturist’s Journey Through Time,” explores community bonds, community healing, and community adaptability. McKnight speculates on a distant future while looking to the past and present to inform us on how Black Americans may get to a future where Black bodies and communities reap the full benefits of their creativity, ingenuity, resources, and labor. As part of this exhibition, Cheyney has developed a series of performance art pieces to engage with the community.
How do Black descendants of those enslaved in America envision the future of sites of enslavement? Join Afrofuturist, Artist, and Historical Interpreter Cheyney McKnight in her exhibit, The Ancestor’s Future: An Afrofuturist’s Journey Through Time at Dyckman Farmhouse Museum. The exhibit is a personally curated journey from the past of Black America to the future of the African diaspora that uses clothing and set design to center the descendants in the conversation. The public is invited to join Mcknight along with other descendants over a cup of tea in a conversation about the African experience in America’s past, how it is impacting the present, and hear speculations about the far future of the Diaspora through the lens of descendants.

RenChorNY presents Austro-Hungarian Court Composers
Like her grandfather Maximilian I, who employed Isaac and Senfl, Mary Queen of Hungary brilliantly employed the Court composer Thomas Stoltzer to set Luther’s new 1524 Hebrew-German Psalm translations to pioneering 6/7vv. polyphony. Ludwig Senfl arranged Josquin’s ‘Ave Maria’ to 6vv.
These and other of their motets and lied are featured by RenChorNY, led by Richard Porterfield. |
