The Tang Museum, in collaboration with GW202: Lived Feminism, presents a conversation with artist Endia Beal, whose work from the Tang Collection, Melanie (from Am I What You’re Looking For?) is featured in Never Done: 100 Years of Women in Politics and Beyond. Co-Curators Minita Sanghvi and Rachel Seligman, along with students in the Lived Feminism class, will talk with Beal about her exploration of the experiences of women of color in corporate spaces, and how she addresses questions of representation, class, and racial justice in her work.

About Endia Beal

Endia Beal is a North Carolina based artist, curator, and author who uses photography and video to reveal the often overlooked and unappreciated experiences unique to people of color. Beal’s first monograph, Performance Review, brings together work over a 10-year period that highlights the realities and challenges for women of color in the corporate workplace. She lectures about these experiences, which also addresses bias in corporate hiring practices.

Her work has been exhibited in several institutions including the Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University in Durham, NC; The Charles H.
