Eddie Chambers lecture on Donald Locke
14 Jan 2026 6-7pm
Join Eddie Chambers art historian and curator for a lecture responding to Donald Locke’s exhibition, Resistant Forms.
During this lecture Chambers discusses key works of Locke’s, in relation to his research and writing on the African Diaspora. This lecture elaborates on why the largest opportunities for artists of colour are posthumous opportunities, how we as art and cultural workers are implicated and what strategies we can develop in order to disrupt this.
This exhibition is organised by Ikon in collaboration with Spike Island, Bristol and Camden Art Centre, London with support from the Estate of Donald Locke. The exhibition is generously supported by The Ampersand Foundation, Henry Moore Foundation, the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art, Alison Jacques and the Estate of Donald Locke.
