Tobias Wofford, Assistant Professor, Santa Clara University
Every Thursday evening during Portraits and Other Likenesses from SFMOMA, join us in the MoAD galleries for Community Voices: A Public Dialogue. Hear a creative thinker from the Bay Area cultural community reflect on the exhibition’s themes of identity, representation, space, and diaspora, and how these themes inspire the speaker’s practice.
Tobias Wofford’s research focuses on issues of race, identity, and globalization in contemporary art of the African diaspora. He is currently working on a book that builds on his dissertation “Africa as Muse: The Visualization of Diaspora in African American Art, 1950-1980.”
