Artist Talk + Performance: “Reggie Wilson/Fist & Heel Performance Group: POWER”
Drawing on Shaker history, African American spiritual traditions, and Wilson’s extensive research, POWER reimagines Shaker values, worship practices, and social ideals through dance, music, and voice. Part lecture and part performance, this unique program explores the often-overlooked history of Black Shakers and the cultural intersections that shaped their communities. The result is a powerful experience at the crossroads of history, ritual, and contemporary choreography.
The Shakers: A World in the Making is organized by the Milwaukee Art Museum, the Vitra Design Museum, the Institute of Contemporary Art Philadelphia, and the Wüstenrot Foundation, in collaboration with Shaker Museum, Chatham, New York
This drop-in experience is included with Museum admission. On Thursday nights from 4 to 8 p.m., admission is pay-what-you-wish at the door, while tickets purchased online in advance are full price. The Milwaukee Art Museum is grateful to its exhibition sponsors.
