Publisher's Synopsis
Kevin Jerome Everson is known for his abstract depictions of life, people, and work in Northern Ohio and Columbus, Mississippi.Rough and Unequal: A Film by Kevin Jerome Everson catalogs a rare presentation of his two-screen 16mm film installation in which he explores the moon's waxing and waning. Co-curators Betsy Stirratt and Terri Francis expand on their 2019 presentation of Rough and Unequal at Indiana University's Grunwald Gallery with new introductory essays, images, and dialogues with writer Ross Gay, art historian Kelli Morgan, archivist Carmel Curtis, film scholar Joan Hawkins, and more. Rough and Unequal explores some of installation art's most compelling paradoxes: its ephemerality within concreteness and how spectators participate in its experiential and abstract dimensions.
