PROJECT ATRIUM: CARL JOE WILLIAMS


MAKING GREAT LIVES MATTER


November 21, 2020 - March 7, 2021


In Making Great Lives Matter, Carl Joe Williams, a New Orleans- based multimedia artist, presents a large-scale project that considers the idea of the American Dream. In the Atrium, Williams' signature vibrant and rhythmic geometric patterns, inspired by African American quilt patterns and ancient sacred geometry, cover the 40 ft. high Atrium walls. Embedded throughout are objects and power symbols, including Adinkra symbols from West Africa; the American and Confederate Flags; as well as ancient symbols adopted by supremacist groups in the 20th century; all woven together to form a historical backdrop for the televisions and video monitors in the lower tiers. The televisions feature harrowing newsreel footage of injustice, including the death of George Floyd that shook the country in May of 2020. The lower tier of videos features members of the Jacksonville community providing answers to a series of questions posed by the artist that explore their own perspectives on the American Dream (see separate panel).

JOIN THE
#MAKETHEDREAMREAL
CAMPAIGN


The idea of the American Dream is based on the United States Declaration of Independence which states, "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness." What does the American Dream mean to you? Is the America Dream a myth or a reality? How does your family's history, and personal or economic situation reflect the American Dream? Does the Dream serve one race over another and, if so, what are some things we can do to change that? Help us build the #makethedreamreal hashtag campaign to open this conversation in Jacksonville and across the nation.


Step 1: Select a question from the paragraph above.


Step 2: Answer the question on video using your smart phone here in the gallery.


Step 3: Post the video on your social media and tag makethedreamreal and mocajax


Every week, we will share visitors' posts on the museum's social media platforms reaching over 55,000 followers.

ART SELECTION

ANKE WEYER
(German, born 1974)
The Setting Sun, 2010


Oil and acrylic on canvas
Gift of Anthony Perry, 2019.04


Weyer describes her use of color as "urgent", a description which is clearly evident in this painting. By applying many different textures, powerful colors, and expressive brush strokes, the artist creates a space of constant visual movement that translates into a senese of spontaneity.
