Published as part of Montserrat’s Future Collect commission initiated by iniva : ‘Constellations: Care & Resistance’ at Manchester Art Gallery (2021). Centering the conversations that have taken place between the artist and fellow creatives through the public program associated with the commission, the publication also reveals her research and thinking around African American actor Ira Aldridge. A key point of departure for Montserrat was the first work acquired by Manchester Art Gallery, James Northcote’s portrait of Ira Aldridge posing in character as Othello. In A Reimagining of Relations Montserrat asks us to consider the story behind the man in the painting alongside questions of institutional care for people, objects and performances. The publication is punctuated by three Acts made up of collective conversations, and a commissioned essay by Alan Rice on the relationship between Montserrat’s work, Ira Aldridge and the history of Black communities in the north of England.
