Lincoln Memorial Park

OCR is currently researching Lincoln Memorial Park, a cemetery in the Brownsville community of Miami, FL. It is the resting place of many black Miami luminaries like D.A. Dorsey, Gwen S. Cherry, Father John Culmer, and countless others whose lives and narratives may illuminate our understanding of Miami.

In 2019, OCR will mount an exhibition based on our research and publish a journal of documents and writing.

About

OCR, an art and research project, dives deep into less-often-celebrated spaces in Miami, in order to gather knowledge and narratives, to interrogate the shaping and history and to present the findings to a larger audience.

OCR, borrowed from the technical term Optical Character Recognition, is the collective work Domingo Castillo, Adler Guerrier and their collaborators.
