Artist Brett Cook will be in Durham for two weeks in November 2007, when he will collaboratively create a monumental work of public art focused on the spirit and legacy of Pauli Murray, an acclaimed human right activist who grew up in Durham’s West End neighborhood. Community members and Duke University faculty, staff, and students are invited to participate in three workshops that will include participatory exercises, multi-media creations, and dialogue. The residency exemplifies the liberating consequences of community building.
