Description of Pictures: Artist Talk: Ken Gonzales-Day and Titus Kaphar
Join photographer and interdisciplinary artist Ken Gonzales-Day, and painter and sculptor Titus Kaphar, as the artists discuss their practice, inspiration, and the theme of the presence of absence. Both artists address issues of race, equality, and little-known histories in their work, which is featured in UnSeen: Our Past in a New Light. Exhibition curators Taína Caragol and Asma Naeem, will lead a discussion followed by an opportunity for questions from the audience.
Ken Gonzales-Day received an MFA from the University of California Irvine, an MA from Hunter College in NYC, and a BFA from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn. He is a Professor of Art at Scripps College in Claremont, CA. where he has taught since 1995. His work has been widely exhibited including: LACMA, Los Angeles; LAXART, Los Angeles; Tamayo Museum, Mexico City; Palais de Tokyo, Paris; The New Museum, NYC; Generali Foundation, Vienna, among others. In 2017, he was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship in photography. His widely-cited Erased Lynching series, along with the publication of Lynching in the West: 1850-1935 in 2006, has contributed to a broader understanding of the history of racialized violence in the United States and specifically raised awareness of the history of lynching Latinos and other communities of color in California.
Titus Kaphar was born in 1976 in Kalamazoo, Michigan. He has an MFA from Yale University, School of Art, and BFA from San Jose State University. His work has been exhibited and collected by major museums such as the Studio Museum of Harlem, the Brooklyn Museum of Art, the Perez Art Museum, Miami, and the Seattle Museum of Art among others. He currently lives and works between New York and Connecticut, USA. His artworks interact with the history of art by appropriating its styles and mediums. Kaphar cuts, bends, sculpts and mixes the work of Classic and Renaissance painters, creating formal games and new tales between fiction and quotation.

I love well-behaved spiders! They are, in fact, how most people find my site. Unfortunately, my network has a limited bandwidth and pictures take up bandwidth. Spiders ask for lots and lots of pages and chew up lots and lots of bandwidth which slows things down considerably for regular folk. To counter this, you'll see all the text on the page but the images are being suppressed. Also, some system options like merges are being blocked for you.
Note: Permission is NOT granted for spiders, robots, etc to use the site for AI-generation purposes. I'm sure you're thrilled by your ability to make revenue from my work but there's nothing in that for my human users or for me.
If you are in fact human, please email me at guthrie.bruce@gmail.com and I can check if your designation was made in error. Given your number of hits, that's unlikely but what the hell.
