Transatlantic Legacy: Full Circle
Providence premiere of works by artist Tony Ramos

 

October 6th - 9th, 2015
See full schedule of events.

The work of Tony Ramos as a pioneering performance and media artist is framed by his sojourns from Rhode Island to Cape Verde. It spans a forty year trajectory of recording, documenting, and creating a narrative that connects dots and points of space, time, history, and memory.  In this the reconstitution of forgotten and overlooked stories is the legacy. The Rhode Island return of the artist and his work 40 years later brings full circle a unique and important transatlantic legacy, connecting a body of work that is local, global, and universal.
