On October 13 the Karen Connell Speaker Fund and the Department of Art and Art History will welcome .
Ian Weaver teaches painting and drawing at Saint Mary’s College, South Bend IN. In his own practice he works in a variety of media, from drawing and collage to sculpture to installations, to examine how individuals and communities construct memory through commemoration and personal or communal archives. He has constructed itinerant and intermittent museums and archives of, for example, the erstwhile African American community of the Black Bottom neighborhood on Chicago’s South Side (a neighborhood razed to make room for urban development and interstate construction in the 1950s), and the imaginary Black Knights liberation movement.
