By conceptualizing the archive as a site of both history and futurity, we are invited to engage citation as a devotional practice and consider the ways in which Black knowledge production is a communal action.Presented in the library on the first floor of Pace's New York gallery, [action=query]: Black Arts and Black Aesthetics is the culmination of inaugural Wikimedia Fellow Kristen Owens's self-guided research into the Black American and Black diasporic artists who have been represented by or exhibited with Pace during its 60-year history. Styled as a reading room, this exhibition provides visitors the opportunity to engage with a selection of catalogues, essays, and other key publications and archival materials curated by Owens and focused on Black art and visual culture.
