Featuring video installations, photographs, and a sound installation produced in the Niger Delta region of southeastern Nigeria from 2013-2015, the exhibition uses folklore, masquerade traditions, religious practices, food and Nigerian popular aesthetics to test art's capacity to transform and to envision new concepts of environment and environmentalism. Engaging Niger Delta residents both as subjects and collaborators, Zina Saro-Wiwa cultivates strategies of psychic survival and performance, underscoring the complex and expressive ways in which people live in an area historically fraught with the politics of energy, labor and land. Known for decades for corruption and envrionmental degradation, the Niger Delta is also a verdant place, an abundant food producer as well as provider of crude oil and natural gas to the entire globe. Full inscribed within the Niger Delta while addressing the global circulation ofenergy capital, Saro-Wiwa develops narraitve devices that render environmental and emotional ecosystems inseparable." $c http://blafferartmuseum.org/zina-saro-wiwa-did-you-know-we-taught-them-how-to-dance/ 600 10 $a Saro-Wiwa, Zina $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Video installations (Art) $z Nigeria $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Video installations (Art) $z Great Britain $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Photography $z Nigeria $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Photography $z Great Britain $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Sound installations (Art) $z Nigeria $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Sound installations (Art) $z Great Britain $y 21st century $v Exhibitions. 650 0 $a Environmental degradation $v In art. 651 0 $a Niger River Delta (Nigeria) $v In art. 700 1 $a Powell, Amy L., $e compiler. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2016061340 700 1 $a Alagoa, Ebiegberi Joe, $e author. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n50040164 700 1 $a Bailey, Maria, $e editor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nb99021604 710 2 $a Blaffer Art Museum at the University of Houston, $e host institution. $e host institution. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2010045116 710 2 $a Krannert Art Museum, $e host institution. $e host institution. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n50067717 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191217030429.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20181010011054.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=376FE340019F11E89C78220097128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
