“When you think about what artists have had and are having great impact on the world, Carrie Mae comes to mind, frankly, quite immediately. The Brooklyn Museum’s director Anne Pasternak said deciding to salute Weems at the April 25 gala didn’t involve a competition with anyone else. Her work has been featured in such shows at the museum as one in 2017, “We Wanted a Revolution: Black Radical Women, 1965-85,” and another in 2008, “Burning Down the House: Building a Feminist Art Collection.” Weems’ art will soon be featured in an exhibition at the museum titled “A Movement in Every Direction: Legacies of the Great Migration,” which traces the movement of millions of Black Americans from the post-Reconstruction South to other parts of the country. Through that she has documented the Black experience looking at themes of sexism, class and political systems, as well as challenging systemic violence against Black people. The multidimensional talent’s body of work includes photographs, text, fabric, mixed media and installations. Keeping true to that, the 12th annual Artists Ball will honor trailblazing artist and activist Carrie Mae Weems, whose 40-plus-year career cannot be defined by any one metier. While the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Met Ball is all about fashion, across the East River the Brooklyn Museum’s Artists Ball is all about art.
