“Re-Cor-Dare: Sauda Mitchell” exhibition now on view at Telfair’s Jepson Center Sauda Mitchell, Finding Aid, 2021 Sauda Mitchell harnesses the power of archival collections in her ambitious solo exhibition, “Re-Cor-Dare,” now on view at the Telfair Museum’s Jepson Center.
For Mitchell, the act of recording and the purpose of preserving archival material is to give back to our hearts and minds across time and space. This sentiment inspired the title of her exhibition. Referencing the Latin roots of the word, “record”: “recordari,” to remember and “cor” or “cord” meaning the heart, “Re-Cor-Dare” takes a multidisciplinary approach to activating the intellectual and emotional information provided by historical and primary source material, specifically information on American Black history and enslaved peoples.
The pieces by Pablo Picasso and David Hockney may get top billing, but I was impressed again and again by the exhibition’s breadth.
Three ink drawings by filmmaker, writer and artist Jean Cocteau were done for a 1952 production of Igor Stravinsky’s opera-oratorio “Oedipus Rex.” With quick gestures and brutal specificity, Cocteau depicts the blinding of Oedipus and the hanging of Jocasta.
A seductive, stylized piece by Russian artist Leon Bakst captures Vaslav Nijinsky as a Chinese dancer in a 1917 production of “Les Orientales.”
The show also includes a dark silk robe with metallic embroidery and metal studs created by Henri Matisse for a 1920 production of Stravinsky’s ballet “The Song of the Nightingale.”
The Fence Art Project features nine large-scale paintings on canvas mounted to construction fences. The pieces hang near the new SEDA offices at Drayton and Forsyth Park, as well as in front of two additional developments on Bull Street, one on the west side near 38th, and one on the east side close to the intersection of 31st.
Organized by local business owner and art advocate Clinton Edminster, the project features a diverse collection of artists and styles, each working with the theme of “Building Together.”
With Amiri Geuka Farris’ contribution to the project, the artist is tackling the concept both literally and metaphorically.
