CARRIE
MAE WEEMS receives the 2005
WIPI Distinguished Award
"My responsibility as an artist is to work,
to sing for my supper, to make art, beautiful and powerful, that adds and
reveals; to beautify the mess of a messy world, to heal the sick and feed
the helpless; to shout bravely from the rooftops and storm barricaded doors
and voice the specificity of our historical moment."
