The Black Lunch Table (BLT) project will host its first edit-a-thon on Sunday May 17, 2015 from 1-6pm. Join us, the Studio Museum in Harlem staff, and folks from the local Harlem community in the museum's atrium (just inside the museum doors) for an afternoon of social Wikipedia editing.
BLT at the Studio Museum in Harlem will create, update, and improve Wikipedia articles pertaining to the lives and works of Black artists with first person accounts, and research materials. Together we will create historical documents that respond to the urgent need for a reconstruction of the art historical record. All are invited, with no specialized knowledge of the subject or Wikipedia editing experience required. A brief overview of the basics of Wikipedia editing will be given at the start of the edit-a-thon. We will have library resources and a list of suggested topics on hand.
Description
[edit]This inaugural Black Lunch Table-hosted Wikipedia Edit-A-Thon parallels themes present in Samuel Levi Jones’ Unbound exhibition, currently on view at the Studio Museum in Harlem. This artists' project similarly explores archives of knowledge revealed or obscured by authoritarian systems, and is a response to the omission of so many black artists from larger art historical narratives and from studies of vernacular production.
Historical information
[edit]The Black Lunch Table (BLT) is an ongoing collaboration between artists Jina Valentine and Heather Hart which intends to fill holes in the documentation of contemporary art history. In its 10 year existence, the BLT has taken a variety of forms relating to this most recent iteration, in the form of the Wikipedia edit-a-thon. BLT’s aim is the production of discursive sites (at literal and metaphorical lunch tables), wherein cultural producers of color engage in critical dialogue on topics directly affecting our communities. They endeavor to create spaces, online and off, mirroring the activity and creativity present in sites where Blackness and Art are performed.
Location history
[edit]The Studio Museum in Harlem is the nexus for artists of African descent locally, nationally and internationally and for work that has been inspired and influenced by black culture. It is a site for the dynamic exchange of ideas about art and society.
