12:30PM - 2:00PM - Allan deSouza: Visiting Artist Lecture

Remis Auditorium, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston

Admission is free and open to the public. Note: attendees must obtain free tickets from a kiosk at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston to gain admittance.

Part of the Professional Practices for Visual Artists lecture series, funded by the Emily Hall Tremaine Foundation.

Allan deSouza is assistant professor in the New Genres department at San Francisco Art Institute. His photographic and sculptural works examine issues of architecture, the body, dislocation, landscape, memory and vision. In images of fabricated miniature landscapes and public, architectural spaces, deSouza constructs fictional narratives that examine the role of memory and history in the formation of racial, sexual, and colonial identities. In "The Lost Pictures," he built a scale model of his childhood home in Kenya from memory, burned the exterior, and gradually covered the remains in layers of wax and detritus-hair, dust, scraps and bodily fluids. Over time, he carved into these accretions, excavating the house, and exposing surfaces and accumulated materials. deSouza has exhibited at venues ranging from the Whitney Museum, NY; Susanne Vielmetter, LA; the Gulbenkian Foundation, Lisbon; the Biennial of the Canaries, and the Pompidou Centre, Paris. He is represented by Talwar Gallery, NY. His fiction and critical writings have appeared in various journals and anthologies.
