A little about Rashieda...The Black Metropolis Research Consortium (BMRC) recently welcomed Rashieda Witter as its Black Visual Arts Researcher. Rashieda is an art historian and cultural caretaker who comes to the BMRC from the National Gallery of Art (Washington, DC) where she was the curatorial assistant for the “Elizabeth Catlett: A Black Revolutionary Artist” exhibition. As the Black Visual Arts Researcher, Rashieda will survey and document Black visual arts archival records located in BMRC member collections, manage outreach activities to encourage the use of the materials by artists and creatives, and develop a public-facing independent project.
