Facing Change: Identity
“Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.” —James Baldwin
Every other month, the Barnes brings together artists, scholars, and community activists virtually for a multicultural and intergenerational conversation about race in America.
Our August conversation focused on identity—the qualities, beliefs, personality traits, and/or physical appearance that make up a person or group. The panel featured educator and activist Françoise Thenoux, mural artist Ernel Martinez, and musician Daniel de Jesús with producer Loraine Ballard Morrill as moderator. During the program, the audience was encouraged to use the chat function to submit their own questions. The live chat was moderated by curator Ginger Rudolph.

About The Barnes Foundation:
The mission of the Barnes is to promote the advancement of education and the appreciation of the fine arts and horticulture.
Our founder, Dr. Albert C. Barnes, believed that art had the power to improve minds and transform lives. Our diverse educational programs are based on his teachings and one-of-a-kind collections.
Philadelphia art collector, Albert C. Barnes (1872–1951), chartered the Barnes Foundation in 1922 to teach people from all walks of life how to look at art. Over three decades, he collected some of the world’s most important impressionist, post-impressionist, and modern paintings, including works by Renoir, Cézanne, Matisse, and Picasso. He displayed them alongside African masks, native American jewelry, Greek antiquities, and decorative metalwork.
