> DESCRIPTION
An Artist Project in Three Parts:
- San Francisco City Hall, North Light Court Exhibition
- Kiosks Posters
- Recorded Interviews
Since
1980, Lonnie Graham has traveled throughout Asia, Africa, and North
America interviewing people and recording their opinions and beliefs
regarding their culture, heritage, and traditions. In 1994, he was
awarded with the National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship and the PEW
Travel Grant, enabling him to expand his travels, broadening the scope
of his project. A Conversation with the World is a combination of
visual art and socio-anthropology. Through his work, Lonnie Graham
illustrates the basic needs of the human condition by asking eight
questions. The responses he gathers explore the essential and
fundamental motivations of human beings while clearly illustrating the
bond that is inherent in our humanity. |
