Amandla Stenberg and Mars from Art Hoe Collective meet with Brooklyn based artist Lorna Simpson, discussing the inspiration behind the #ArtHoe movement and how it relates to Simpson’s work.
Art Hoe Collective is an online platform providing young creatives of colour the opportunity to broadcast and share their artwork. Through social media the collective explore questions of race, gender and sexuality.
“It’s become a movement about self-acceptance and self-love as artwork” – Amandla Stenberg of Art Hoe Collective
Often using found materials within her work, Lorna Simpson similarly deals with the issues of discrimination and marginalisation that exist in mainstream society. Drawing comparisons between their motivations and artwork, Simpson, Amandla Stenberg and Mars from Art Hoe Collective share their experiences of working as artists.
With music by Willow Smith (also of Art Hoe Collective) and Pools.
Lorna Simpson’s work is on display in Artist and Society at Tate Modern: http://goo.gl/UaIASv

So sad to see this incredible movement being over taken by privileged white girls using it as a name for their clothing.

I don't know…I get a bit tired of hearing about how people of color's art is marginalized. Would you say that artists of color are marginalized in the music world? What about comedy? What about dance? In the fine art world., if you're good, ambitious and your timing is right, you'll get recognized. So, with this in mind, here's a list of prominent living black visual artists, just off the top of my head: Kara Walker, Kerry James Marshall, Martin Puryear, Kehinde Wiley, Glenn Ligon, Mickalene Thomas, Julie Mehretu, Mark Bradford, Betty Saar and….Lorna Simpson. And here's another fact: many, many visual artists, regardless of their color, are not recognized until after they die. So if you're in the game solely for the attention that's fine, but remember you may end up being frustrated. You may not be in the right place at the right time, despite your talent. Just the way it is, snowflakes. You're not the center of the universe.
I love what ya'll are doing! Please check out Fresh Perspective Art Collective on Facebook and youtube, we are doing something smilier to what you all are doing!
yt people really colonized the entire movement huh. damn shame. rip
its sad to see how the entire movement has been whitewashed and turned into an aesthetic for people clothing. Its like nobody knows the meaning anymore.
lol bad name
