Colour Memories - a new exhibition from Museum of Architecture

Tariq Dixon, co-founder of TRNK NYC, will discuss PROVENANCED, a digital exhibition that debuted in fall of 2020. PROVENANCED explores what it might mean to establish a canon of African and Indigenous-inspired design that exists outside a colonial legacy of extraction and appropriation. Dixon's lecture will look at product design and industrial design through the lens of racism and classism in terms of curation, the industrial design business, and how the industry historically has been impacted by these phenomena.
