About

Join us for an artist talk with Jordan Baseman, where he will discuss his new video work "gendersick", along with his career as a practicing artist. The Artist Talk will be on Tuesday, October 9th from 12:30 - 1:30 pm, in TCU's Moudy Fine Arts Building, room 031N, in the Photography Lab.

Fort Worth Contemporary Arts is pleased to announce their collaboration with guest artist Jordan Baseman in the exhibition "gendersick" -- a collection of films opening October 10 and running through November 17, 2018 at Fort Worth Contemporary Arts. Baseman creates visual work best described as a synthesis of reportage, portraiture, documentary, creative non-fiction and narrative practices. The gendersick exhibition addresses challenging topics through specific lived experiences with results that are deeply moving and unforgettable. Funding for this program was provided, in part, by the TCU College of Fine Arts Programming & Diversity Initiative.

Art and Aging: Dementia Awareness is a free event at Fort Worth Contemporary Arts which highlights what the community is doing to raise awareness of dementia. Our conversations will emerge out of thoughts raised by artist on view, Jordan Baseman's piece "La La La La." Join The Art Galleries at TCU and the TCU Harris College of Nursing & Health Sciences as we explore the work of London based, installation film artist Jordan Baseman, and how his work intersects with topics of aging, the effects of dementia, and civil issues surrounding the disease. This event is organized by Assistant Professor in the Harris College, Michele Kimzey, and speakers include representatives from Alzheimer's Association, and Dementia Friendly Fort Worth Campaign's Linda Abel.
