    How does art foster dialogue, create/sustain community, and (re)inscribe memory? Presenter: Dr. Lasana Kazembe, IUPUI Description: Indiana writers and artists have a rich legacy of expressing the political and social ideas of their time. Lasana’s multimedia presentation explores how artists-from Hoosier poets to visual and performing artists-have represented the new urban industrial reality that developed in the Midwest and addressed social disillusionment across urban, rural and suburban lines.This session examines the lives, art, and ideas of four famous Hoosiers: Mari Evans, Etheridge Knight, Freddie Hubbard, and Wes Montgomery. Through their work, these artists were also responsible for bringing the collective thoughts, sensibilities, and folk wisdom of Indiana and the Midwest into the broader landscape of American artistic and intellectual traditions.
