MISSION

It is 2007 we will build on our fears, myths and visions – this here is Black Rock.

Responding to extreme isolation we are invoking an visual, sonic and performing Call
and Response.

Gallery Aferro and REBORN have gathered together 22 contemporary
artists and changemakers of African descent and those influenced by the forms, traditions
and history of the African Diaspora.

Spanning more than 11 countries these artists of the Caribbean, South America,
Europe and West Africa claim Home in a post -Civil Rights Movement era by gathering,
re-imagining and dreaming a deeper connected community together.

Black Rock engages sight, sound, mind, and heart through art, music, film and video,
community panels and interactive workshops. It is an explosive cultural exhibition of
artists and cultural activists whose work innovate cultural forms to engage our most
challenging fears and greatest visions of living as individuals within community of Home
- the self, local community, nation and world.
