A rainy day in Rhode Island!
We went to the David Winton Bell Gallery at Brown University's List Art Center for the installation titled: Lisa Reihana: in Pursuit of Venus [infected].
At 19-months Adaline is certainly exploring and experimenting with her world, including pinching her face with plastic tongs! |
Lisa Reihana is a New Zealander of Māori descent.
Next down the hill to the RISD/Rhode Island School of Design Museum.
We headed down to the RISD Gelman Student Exhibitions Gallery for the student-curated The Black Biennial; an effort to exhibit works by Blacks, yet not be curated and interpreted by Whites.
BED (2004, by Dawn Clements, a former RISD professor) seems to reveal multiple lines of thought |
A BED closeup shows different techniques, though with great detail |
Juneteenth (2022 by Amadi Williams) |
Cigar Box Krar (a five-or-six stringed bowl shaped lyre from Ethiopia and Eritrea) (undated, by Cassius Rich) |
Archival costume (2021, from the activist dance opera The Historical Fantasy of Esek Hopkins: The Bamama Empire performed by The Haus of Glitter) in Malian style |
Bear Witness (2021, by Bob Dilworth) required a second look to realize it was a painting of a painting |
