Melvin Edwards in discussion with Curator Jill Moniz
California African American Museum, California, USA
California African American Museum hosts a talk between pioneering African-American artist Melvin Edwards and 'LA Blacksmith' curator Jill Moniz. Edwards employs metalwork and abstraction to explore social injustice and the African-American experience, as evidenced in his work 'My Turn to Burn' - a response to the 1965 Watts Rebellion - which is currently on display at CAAM.
