An evening hovering between a reading, a performance, and a conversation

What is the difference between a shitty review and a bad review? What modes of racialized and gendered apprehension and misapprehension constitute art criticism? What happens when artists refuse the critical appraisal of their work? This evening brings the artist Jeremy Toussaint-Baptiste and the art historian Rachel Hunter Himes together in pursuit of questions such as these. Hovering between a reading, a performance, and a conversation, the night will investigate what is at stake, both politically and formally, in critical writing and aesthetic evaluation.

Jeremy Toussaint-Baptiste’s work, spanning roles as both artist, composer, and performer, considers errant relations that push toward the limits of subjectivity. Toussaint-Bapiste’s fellowships and awards include the Camargo Foundation Core Program Fellowship; Bemis Center for Contemporary Arts Sound Artist-In-Residence; Bessie Award for Outstanding Music Composition and Sound Design, the Jerome Foundation Airspace Residency at Abrons Arts Center; and the Rauschenberg Residency 381. Recent exhibitions and performances include The Institute of Contemporary Art at VCU, 1708 Gallery, Richmond, Virginia; Berlin Atonal, Berlin, Germany; MoMA PS1, Queens, New York; Performance Space, New York, New York; The Kitchen, Brooklyn, New York; Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; and The Studio Museum in Harlem, New York, New York. They are an Assistant Professor in Sculpture & Extended Media at Virginia Commonwealth University.

Rachel Hunter Himes is an art historian, critic, and museum worker completing a PhD in art history at Columbia University. Her writing has appeared in n+1, The Nation, Jacobin, and the New York Review of Architecture.
