Curated for BAM by Larry Ossei-Mensah, BAM Guest Curator-at-Large

Part of DanceAfrica Festival 2022

In this new work made of stained glass, “Be Lost Well (Stay in the House All Day)”, artist and writer Christopher Myers pays homage to interdisciplinary artist Ralph Lemon and continues to unfurl his interest in employing a cross-cultural approach to his artistic practice as a forum to cultivate new narratives.

Curated by BAM’s Guest Curator-At-Large, Larry Ossei-Mensah, and presented in the Peter Jay Sharp Building, Myers’ piece will premiere at DanceAfrica 2022 and remain on exhibit through BAM’s spring season.
