Earlier this year, Dell Marie Hamilton was named as one of the recipients of the ICA/Boston’s 2021 James and Audrey Foster Prize. While Hamilton has worked in a variety of roles over her many years at the Hutchins Center for African and African American Research, she is also a visual artist and curated the acclaimed “Nine Moments for Now” exhibition for the Cooper Gallery of African and African American Art in 2018.
For the exhibition, Hamilton created a room-sized multimedia installation and library in memory of art historian Susan A. Denker ’70, who was one of the first officers of the Radcliffe Union of Students, and taught feminist film history and African American art for two decades at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts University.
