SUMMARY:Pine Bluff Through the Lens: Artist Talk with Michael Grice
DESCRIPTION:Experience the compelling photography of Geleve Grice as his son\, Michael Grice\, delves into his father’s legacy of documenting Pine Bluff\, Arkansas. \nMichael will reflect on how his father’s career shaped his own journey as an 1980s East Coast fashion photographer and explore connections to Kwame Brathwaite: The 1970s\, currently on view at AMFA\, in partnership with the Mosaic Templars Cultural Center’s Juneteenth in the Rock celebration. \n\n\nAbout Michael Grice\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBorn in Pine Bluff\, Arkansas\, Michael Grice was raised in New York state. During the sixties\, however\, he returned to spend every summer in Pine Bluff. He would vanish into the cool depths of his father Geleve Grice’s photography studio on Main Street when\, as he says\, “downtown was a thing.” \n\n\n\nGrice began his own photography career in Washington\, D.C. covering news events\, political intrigue\, and human drama. During the early 1970s\, Michael hung out in emerging hair braiding salons. \n\n\n\nIn the 1980s\, he captured contemporary elegance and style\, shooting photos for New York modeling agencies and fashion magazines such as Vogue\, Butterick\, and Essence. \n\n\n\nToday\, Michael Grice is a storyteller living in Maumelle\, Arkansas. \n\n\n\n\nPine Bluff Through the Lens: Artist Talk with Michael Grice is supported in part by the Alice L. Walton Foundation. \nThis is an official Juneteenth in Da Rock Affiliate event. \n \nKwame Brathwaite: The 1970s is organized by the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts. \nPhotography courtesy of Michael Grice.
