VocalEye Almost Live #23 | Virtual Tour: Kent Monkman's Shame and Prejudice
Shame and Prejudice: A Story of Resilience by Kent Monkman takes you on a journey through the past 150 years of Canada. It is a journey that reclaims and reinserts Indigenous voices into the collective memory of our country, challenging and shattering colonial ideas of our history. The artist’s gender-fluid, time-travelling alter-ego, Miss Chief Eagle Testickle, is the narrator of this story, told through the lens of Indigenous resilience. The pre-recorded tour is led by curator Dr. Jennifer Kramer and features 14 artworks from the exhibit, with supplementary descriptions by VocalEye for guests with sight loss. Descriptions by Vocaleye director Steph Kirkland follow each chapter, as well as discussions with Issaku Inami and Marie Wustner of UBC's Museum of Anthropology. Hosted by Amy Amantea. 0:00 - Intro Title Card 2:26 - Pre-show Introduction with Amy Amantea and Steph Kirkland 14:55 - Chapter 1 37:12 - Chapter 2 52:23 - Chapter 3 1:03:03 - Chapter 4 1:15:24 - Chapter 5 1:33:07 - Chapter 6 1:45:26 - Chapter 7 1:56:40 - Chapter 8 2:06:59 - Chapter 9 Shame and Prejudice: A Story of Resilience at the Museum of Anthropology UBC from August 2, 2020 to January 3, 2021 Kent Monkman Studio on YouTube @kentmonkmanstudio1224 Kent Monkman website: https://www.kentmonkman.com For more information about the Museum of Anthropology, visit: https://moa.ubc.ca For more information on events and programs from VocalEye, visit: http://www.vocaleye.ca/
