Mid-20th century\, Terracotta. The Stan ley Collection of African Art\, X1990.70. Unrecorded artist\; Mozambique.  Provenance: The Stanley Collection of African Art\, Muscatine\, IA\; gi ft from Elizabeth Stanley to the University of Iowa Museum of Art via bequ est\, 1990.\nCurated by students enrolled in the Fall 2025 course MUSM/ART H: 4081\, “Curating African Art in America\,” taught by Cory Gundlach at the University of Iowa. \nFor over a century\, historical African art h as served as a cornerstone of American museum collections\, facilitating e ducation\, research\, and community engagement. The impact of such collect ions is deeply rooted here at the University of Iowa\, where an exhibition of African belongings inspired the introduction of the nation’s first P hD in African art history in 1957. While these collections remain common t o the American cultural experience today\, they continue to evoke a comple x range of emotions—ranging from deep connection\, comfort and joy\, to grief\, anger\, and discomfort. \nDis/Comfort: Confronting Histories of Af rican Art in the United States invites visitors to acknowledge diverse an d complex emotional responses to African collections in US art museums\, a nd to confront histories of ethical debate surrounding them. \nThis studen t-curated exhibition features select works from the Stanley Museum of Art ’s African collection. Referred to as “belongings” rather than “ob jects\,” they are presented through three thematic lenses—women’s agency\, environment and spirituality\, and the ethics of categorization.  This shift in terminology emphasizes ownership history\, particularly be cause the provenance for historical African collections often begins wit h individuals and locations outside of Africa. \nStudent Curators\nNames are listed in relation to text panels coauthored by students for each them atic section of the exhibition. \n\n\n\n\nCategorization Ethics\nEnvironme nt & Spirituality\nWomen’s Agency\n\n\n\n\nObatola Layiwola\nOlivia Ande rs\nJulie Brachmann\n\n\nRanee Taylor\nAngelina Gentry\nCecil Campbell\n\n \nArchie Wagner\nAly Hurley\nHannah Grillot\n\n\nLauren Woessner\nMadalynn Vega\nMaryellen Lerg\n\n\n\n\n\nAcknowledging Unrecorded Ownership Histor ies In Africa\nThis exhibition and the related course emphasize provenance \, or ownership history for an artwork. In museum records\, documented own ership histories usually include the names of dealers\, collectors\, and i nstitutions in Europe and the United States who acquired belongings when o r after they left Africa. The names of earlier owners within that continen t\, as well as artists’ names\, are often absent. With support from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation\, the Stanley Museum of Art is conducting prov enance research on its historical African collection to better understand the ownership histories of belongings within it\, and its ethical status i n relation to collecting practices during the colonial period (1884–1994 ). \nEach label in this exhibition includes provenance information that re presents a partial view of ownership history. A semicolon separating two n ames confirms that the work passed directly between two owners\, while a p eriod suggests that a direct transfer did not happen or is not known to ha ve happened. Although many of the associated makers and owners within Afri ca remain unidentified\, the Stanley Museum of Art acknowledges their cent ral importance as the people who gave these belongings meaning. \n \n\n\n\ n\nGallery Hours\n\n\nMonday\nClosed\n\n\n\nTuesday\n10 a.m.–4:30 p.m.\n \n\n\nWednesday\n10 a.m.–4:30 p.m.\n\n\n\nThursday\n10 a.m.–8:00 p.m.\ n\n\n\nFriday\n10 a.m.–4:30 p.m.\n\n\n\nSaturday\n10 a.m.–4:30 p.m.\n\ n\n\nSunday\n12:00 p.m.–4:30 p.m.\n\nOngoing through February 28\, 2027.

On loan from the Eskenazi Museum of Art at Indiana Universit y\, it is the first exhibition of its kind at the Stanley Museum of Art\, reimagining the notion of an archive to include personal\, familial\, and community collections depicting the past. \nSpanning the colonial and inde pendence periods in Africa\, historic portraits from public archives often depict family and friends and thus hold deeply personal significance. The exhibition draws on strengths in the Eskenazi Museum’s collection of Ma lick Sidibé’s and Tijani Sitou’s photography from the mid- to late tw entieth century. Sidibé and Sitou became well known within their respecti ve communities in Bamako and Mopti\, both in Mali. Sidibé also garnered g lobal recognition for his portraits of Malians following political indepen dence from France in 1960\, earning his fame as one of the most celebrated photographers from the African continent. \nPortraiture & Archives in Afr ican Photography considers the significance of Sidibé’s and Sitou’s work today. It also traces new directions in portrait photography by conte mporary artists Zohra Opoku\, Ibrahima Thiam\, Hassan Hajjaj\, and Zanele Muholi who engage with portraiture\, archives\, and use photography alongs ide other media like textiles and painting. These six artists work in diff erent parts of Africa— including Ghana\, Senegal\, Mali\, Morocco\, and South Africa—and the African diaspora. Today\, Opoku\, Thiam\, Hajjaj\, and Muholi also actively participate in the global art world by exhibiting in international platforms that connect their practices to larger dialogu es about photography and portraiture. This exhibition offers a new take on Sidibé’s and Sitou’s legacy with Thiam—as both artist and co-curat or— re-inventing their images and reinscribing them with new meaning tod ay. \nA Collaborative Exhibition\n\n\n\nUntitled work from the Portraits “Vintage” series\, 2017. Inkjet print on Hahnemühle paper. 39 11/16 x 31 1/4 inches. Loan from the Eskenazi Museum of Art\, 2024.223. Ibrahima Thiam (Senegalese\, 1976—)\nContemporary artist Ibrahima Thiam guest cur ated this exhibition with Eskenazi Museum curator Allison Martino and Indi ana University faculty Beth Buggenhagen. This was the first time that the Eskenazi Museum invited an artist to serve as an exhibition co-curator. Th rough this collaborative process\, Thiam sought to reinvent the portraitur e tradition in Africa to provide renewed appreciation for African photogra phic archives. This tradition encompasses the work of renowned photographe rs such as Malick Sidibé and Tijani Sitou\, as well as photographs dating back to the arrival of the camera in Saint-Louis\, Senegal\, in 1862. The curators prioritize Thiam’s vision to reimagine African photographic ar chives by placing communities and families\, as they pictured themselves\, at the center. \nThiam and Buggenhagen began working together in Senegal in 2016\, and Thiam first visited Indiana University in 2019 to participat e in a roundtable about his work. He returned in the summer of 2024 for a residency at the Eskenazi Museum of Art to study Sidibé’s and Sitou’s photography and to work on curating the exhibition. Stanley Museum of Art curator Cory Gundlach met Thiam at Dakar in 2022. After acquiring Thiam ’s work for the Stanley Museum of Art in 2023\, he began planning with T hiam and Martino to bring this exhibition to Iowa. Thiam\, Buggenhagen\, a nd Martino worked together to select photographs for the exhibition at Ind iana. The exhibition at Iowa also includes Gundlach’s recent acquisition of work by Hassan Hajjaj and Zanele Muholi. Thiam collaborated on exhibit ion design with staff at the Stanley and Eskenazi museums\, where he also served as curator-in-residence. His vision drove the exhibition narrative\ , foregrounding the perspective of a contemporary photographer. \n \n\n\n\ n\nGallery Hours\nOffice Hours\n\n\nMonday\nClosed\n9 a.m.–5 p.m.\n\n\nT uesday\n10 a.m.–4:30 p.m.\n9 a.m.–5 p.m.\n\n\nWednesday\n10 a.m.–4:3 0 p.m.\n9 a.m.–5 p.m.\n\n\nThursday\n10 a.m.–8:00 p.m.\n9 a.m.–5 p.m .\n\n\nFriday\n10 a.m.–4:30 p.m.\n9 a.m.–5 p.m.\n\n\nSaturday\n10 a.m. –4:30 p.m.\nClosed\n\n\nSunday\n12:00 p.m.–4:30 p.m.\nClosed\n\n\n\n  \n\nAcknowledgments\nThe Stanley Museum of Art and Eskenazi Museum of Art at Indiana University express gratitude and thanks to Malick Sitou and Dr . Candace Keller for their contributions to this exhibition. Son of photog rapher Tijani Sitou\, Malick Sitou allowed the reproduction of his father ’s work in the creation of new artwork by Ibrahima Thiam. Keller graciou sly shared her expertise on Malick Sidibé’s and Tijani Sitou’s photog raphy. Indiana University undergraduate students Sam Berensztein\, Diana B onilla\, Hanh Bui\, and Marie Jones completed curatorial and graphic desig n projects related to this exhibition as part of their summer 2024 interns hips at the Eskenazi Museum. \nAt the Eskenazi Museum of Art\, this exhibi tion received support from Indiana University’s Institute for Advanced S tudy\, College Arts and Humanities Institute\, Office of the Vice Presiden t for International Affairs\, and the Walter Center for Career Achievement \, as well as the Raymond and Laura Wielgus Endowed Curatorship for the Ar ts of Africa\, Oceania\, and Indigenous Art of the Americas.  At the Stan ley Museum of Art\, this exhibition loan and associated programming were m ade possible with support from the Stanley-UI Foundation Support Organizat ion.

Expanding from my recent installations\, Sana Sana and Three Ladders y un Recuerdo\, the work explores how inherited trauma\, mig ration\, ritual practice\, and maternal memory move through the body and d omestic spaces rather than through direct narration. Using photography in these constructed environments and threshold spaces\, I explore materializ ing “conocimiento” as both a personal and generationally collective pr ocess of processing hidden truths. \nIn 2020\, Alzheimer’s and dementia gradually altered my grandmother’s mental cognition. To her relationship with memory\, language\, and recognition. Conversations became nonlinear. Time collapsed in on itself. Stories that had remained buried for decades surfaced unexpectedly through fragmented recollections\, repeated phrases \, and moments where past and present became indistinguishable. Hidden obj ects throughout her apartment became points of connection\, linking materi al traces to oral narratives\, inherited memories\, and forms of knowledge that had remained dormant for generations. \nThrough this framework\, I b egan exploring the idea that my grandmother had become our family’s “N epantlera”\, a term Anzaldúa refers to as an individual who can explore thresholds of conflicting worlds. My grandmother moved throughout these f ractured spaces psychologically\, spiritually\, and ancestrally. Allowing her living family moments of generational respite through her uncovered tr uths. \n\nARTIST BIO: Sammie Correa is an interdisciplinary artist\, photo grapher\, and educator whose work examines maternal lineage\, migration\, ritual practice\, grief\, and inherited trauma through photography\, insta llation\, archival research\, and performance. Working primarily with 4×5 large-format photography\, family archives\, sculptural materials\, and d omestic objects\, Correa constructs immersive environments that investigat e how memory is transmitted through embodied practices\, spirituality\, an d everyday rituals rather than direct narration. Her installations functio n as spaces where personal histories intersect with broader conversations surrounding diaspora\, care\, religion\, and collective memory. \nCorrea i s currently an MFA candidate in Photography and Intermedia at the Universi ty of Iowa and holds dual Bachelor of Fine Arts degrees in Photography & F ilm and Art Education from Virginia Commonwealth University. Prior to grad uate school\, she spent nearly a decade as an art educator in public schoo ls\, museums\, and community arts organizations throughout the Washington\ , D.C. region\, developing photography and visual arts programming. \n229 N.
