Screening
The Broad @ ARRAY: Shirin Neshat + Garrett Bradley
Overview
The Broad and filmmaker Ava DuVernay’s nonprofit film collective ARRAY, brings together Iranian-born artist Shirin Neshat and New Orleans-based filmmaker Garrett Bradley (whose films are featured in this year’s Whitney Biennial) at the new ARRAY campus in Historic Filipinotown. The event will begin with screenings of excerpts from Neshat’s new work, Land of Dreams, and Bradley’s short film, America, followed by a conversation with the artists on the themes of movements and migration across time and land, which are explored in their work.
About ARRAY @ The Broad
ARRAY @ The Broad is an ongoing series featuring classic and contemporary films curated with an eye toward the intersection of art, history and cultural identity. With the cinematic image as the centerpiece, the series engages audiences through post-screening conversations with a spectrum of artists and scholars for an immersive exchange of ideas and insights beyond the screen that enliven many issues addressed by artists in the Broad collection. ARRAY, founded in 2010 by filmmaker Ava DuVernay, is an arts collective dedicated to the amplification of films by people of color and women filmmakers.
