Searching For Augusta Savage

Director’s Cut Screening & Panel

Augusta Savage was the first person in the U.S. to open a gallery dedicated to African American art. A Harlem Renaissance sculptor and art educator, she was also one of the first Black women art activists of her time and fought for the inclusion of Black artists in the mainstream canon. The film explores Savage's legacy, and why her artwork has been largely erased. Stream the the director's cut and Jeanine Hays and Bryan Mason's converation with Sandra Rattley and Charlotte Mangin of Audacious Women Productions. This event was recorded live on October 10, 2024.
