Opening on April 27, 2018, the ICA at the University of Pennsylvania will present a group exhibition by four artists investigating how geographical, ideological, and spatial paradigms determine and reproduce uneven social relations. Featuring works by Torkwase Dyson, Lorraine O’Grady, Jade Montserrat, and Keisha Scarville, The Last Place They Thought Of considers how histories of racial, sexual, and economic exploitation shape our understanding of geography, habitat, and environment. The exhibition seeks to explore the possibility of different, critical engagements with geography through the lens of black female subjectivities and feminisms.
The Last Place They Thought Of is curated by ICA Whitney-Lauder Curatorial Fellow Daniella Rose King and will be on view through August 12, 2018.
