In
collaboration with a team of development workers-in-training from
Chicago and from Kassel, Theaster Gates is restoring and reactivating
the historic Huguenot House in Kassel. Once the restoration is
completed, the house will be turned into a meeting place and location of
varied performative and social events. Part of these events, The Black
Monks of Mississippi, an ensemble of Chicago-based musicians, give
multiple performances throughout the days and the evenings of the
opening week of the exhibition. The Black Monks of Mississippi has
performed with Theaster Gates over the years, calling on the rich jazz,
blues, soul, and gospel traditions of the US.
