The artists featured in The Black Index" Dennis Delgado, Alicia Henry, Kenyatta A.C. Hinkle, Titus Kaphar, Whitfield Lovell and Lava Thomas build upon the tradition of Black self-representation as an antidote to colonialist images. Their translations of photography challenge the mediums long-assumed qualities of objectivity, legibility and identification." Using drawing, sculpture and digital technology to transform the recorded image, these artists question our reliance on photography as a privileged source for documentary objectivity and historical understanding. The works featured here offer an alternative practice a Black index. In the hands of these six artists, the index still serves as a finding aid for information about Black subjects, but it also challenges viewers desire for classification and, instead, redirects them toward alternative information.
