SUNDAY, February 6, 2010 @ Old Church, Oxford

Visual artist, Lynn Marshall-Linnemeier remembers Catherine Boyd and others enslaved in Oxford, Georgia, birthplace of Emory University.

A major work of public art, honoring enslaved people intertwined with the history of Emory University, will be unveiled on the original campus of Emory on Sunday, February 6 at 2:30 p.m.

As the United Nations declares 2011 as the International Year of Peoples of African Descent, the United States recognizes the 150th Anniversary of the onset of the Civil War. Emory also celebrates its 175th Anniversary in 2011, hosting the conference, “Slavery and the University: History and Legacies”, Feb. 3-6, 2011. As Emory publicly expresses its “regret” for its “entwinement with the institution of slavery,” this project will remember the story of Catherine Boyd also known as Miss Kitty, an enslaved woman owned by prominent Methodist Bishop, James Osgood Andrew, first president of the Emory Board of Trustees.

Lynn Marshall-Linnemeier’s work weaves together the varied histories of Oxford while unraveling myths of race, identity and entitlement in the south. On February 6, 2011, the public installation of “Miss Kitty’s Cloak” will bring together the descendents of Catherine Boyd and Bishop James Osgood Andrew as well as other ancestors from this small southern community to remember those gone before.

Unraveling Miss Kitty’s Cloak is a site-specific sculptural installation by renown, photo-based mixed media artist, Lynn Marshall-Linnemeier. In developing “Unraveling Miss Kitty’s Cloak,” Lynn Marshall Linnemeier has worked closely with the Oxford-Covington, Georgia African American community and with cultural anthropologist Dr. Mark Auslander (Brandeis University), who has extensively researched Emory University’s historical connections with slavery.

The general public is invited to join the descendants to view “Miss Kitty’s Cloak” on February 6, 2011, 2:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. at Old Church in Oxford, Georgia (built 1841).
