Exhibition Walkthrough: Labor and the Iwa

  • Fowler Museum 308 Charles E Young Drive North Los Angeles, CA, 90095 United States (map)

Join the Fowler for a walk–through of Myrlande Constant: The Work of Radiance with Katherine Smith, exhibition co-curator. Smith will discuss the significance of labor, familial ties, and devotion to the Iwa (spirits) in the artistic practice of Haitian artist Myrlande Constant. 

The Work of Radiance is a retrospective of the groundbreaking 30-year career of Myrlande Constant, and the first solo U.S. museum exhibition devoted to the work of a Haitian female contemporary artist. The presentation and its accompanying publication trace the evolution of Constant’s artistic vision, innovative techniques, and impact on art-making in Haiti and beyond; and situate her hand-beaded textiles within contemporary arts of Haiti and the African diaspora.
