Dark Water:
Recital in Four Dominions
A Recital in Four Dominions is on current exhibit at the Arthur
Ross Gallery, the exhibition gallery of the University of Pennsylvania,
December 14, 2002-March 2,2003.
In tribute to W.E.B. DuBois, Penn faculty artist and Professor,
Terry Adkins designed the Darkwater exhibit. Adkins examines DuBois
and his work by way of four "dominions": sculpture,
prints, documents, and music, all of them relating to DuBois'
literary output and contributions.
" Darkwater" further celebrates 30 years of African
American Studies at the University of Pennsylvania, where DuBois
was awarded a fellowship in 1895 to conduct a research project
in Philadelphia's impoverished seventh ward. The result was "
The Philadelphia Negro" one of his most recognized works.
