Sadie Barnette: Legacy & Legend
<p>Hello and welcome to another episode of Inside the Benton. I am Hannah Avalos, your host, and in this episode we will be discussing Sadie Barnette: Legacy & Legend, an exhibition currently on view at the Benton Museum of Art at Pomona College. This exhibition is centered on a 500-page surveillance dossier created by the FBI on Rodney Barnette, the artist’s father and the founder of the Compton chapter of the Black Panther party in 1968. The dossier chronicles the tactics of harassment and intimidation experienced by Barnette’s father and in the exhibition, Sadie Barnette uses her own visual language to assert resilience in the face of a history characterized by oppression.</p> <p>In this episode, I interview both Sadie Barnette and the Benton’s senior curator, Rebecca McGrew, and we discuss the origins and content of the exhibition as well as the steps they took to make it happen. <a href="https://pomona.box.com/s/4zqpbltc85nikrl7qroux5mz1yf5bewh">Transcript</a></p>

Art Object Specimen
<p>Hi and welcome to this episode of Inside the Benton. I’m your host, Hannah Avalos, and in this episode, we will explore Art Object Specimen, an exhibition that is closing in just about two weeks at the Benton Museum of Art at Pomona College. So listen to this episode and then make sure to get to the museum to see the show.</p> <p>Art Object, Specimen tests and explores the expectations that art museum spaces implicitly place on the objects that they display. The exhibition calls into question the categories we use to talk about objects in the world. Which objects are art? Which are specimens? Does your coffee mug become art if it goes from your kitchen table into a museum? What does it mean to be an object?</p> <p>Much like how the geological specimens in the show index moments in earth’s history, this episode serves as a record of what this exhibition captured. In this episode you’ll hear me talk first with Noor Tamari ‘22 about the snuff bottles in the collection. And from the geology department, you will hear both from D’maia Curry, ‘19 who was also the Benton’s Post Baccalaureate fellow, and Geology Professor Jade Star Lackey. They will both talk about the intersections of art and geology and what this exhibition meant to them.</p> <p>Let's get into it.</p>
