From the rooftops of Harlem to the Louvre in Paris, Faith Ringgold's work, including her innovative narrative quilts, embodies powerful and instructive narratives about labor, love, life, and the notion of radical imagination. In this lecture, Sandra Jackson-Dumont, director and chief executive officer of the Lucas Museum of Art, will discuss how Ringgold's approach to visual storytelling functions as a form of social, personal, and collective liberation.
Sandra Jackson-Dumont is a Lucas Museum of Narrative Art Curator, author, educator, administrator, and public advocate for reimagining the role of art museums in society. Jackson-Dumont has served as director and chief executive officer of the new Lucas Museum of Narrative Art since January 2020. She oversees all curatorial, educational, public, and operational affairs for the fast-developing institution, including realization of the 11-acre campus in Los Angeles, currently under construction, which includes a nearly 300,000-square-foot museum building and an expansive new park.
