triangle productions Continues Newest Outreach Program THE BROWN PAPER BAG SERIES

Chosen out of several dozen "anti-lynching" plays, most written by African American women between 1916 and 1934, are four one-acts which will be presented through spring of 2017 in the Portland Metro area. In light of recent violent acts against people of color, collaborating professional artists are committed to sharing these plays in ways which elicit greater understanding of yesterday's events relating to today's environment.

Met Museum Displays Array of Kongo Aesthetic Ingenuity in New Exhibition, Opening Today

A landmark presentation that will radically redefine our understanding of Africa's relationship with the West, Kongo: Power and Majesty, opening at The Metropolitan Museum of Art this September, will focus on one of the continent's most influential artistic traditions, from the earliest moment of direct engagement between African and European leaders at the end of the 15th century through the early 20th century. The creative output of Kongo artists of Central Africa will be represented by 134 works drawn from more than 50 institutional and private collections across Europe and the United States, reflecting five hundred years of encounters and shifting relations between European and Kongo leaders. From a dynamic assembly of 15 monumental power figures to elegantly carved ivories and finely woven textiles, the exhibition will explore how the talents of Central Africa's most gifted artists were directed toward articulating a culturally distinct vernacular of power.
