Important questions asked and answered in this show by a brilliant, unique contemporary artist. 

A dramatic statement made by Cummer’s new director Andrea Barnwell Brownlee who was able to fill a hole in the museum’s exhibition schedule with this breathtaking and important show in a matter of hours. #baller 

Here’s my sneak peek from today.
There rare post that combines two of my passions: There rare post that combines two of my passions: art and native plants.

@stormkingartcenter presents a site-specific installation of @rashidjohnson 2019 sculptural work ‘The Crisis,’ on view through November 8, 2021.
 
The installation will mark the first US presentation of the artwork, which the artist has adapted to respond directly to Storm King’s native landscape.
 
Rashid Johnson (b. 1977) draws inspiration from combining architectural and organic elements, intending for ‘The Crisis’ to capture the tension of the moment in which nature has just begun to reclaim a human-made structure. Originally planned to be shown at Storm King in 2020, ‘The Crisis’ has taken on a striking new relevance in this time of reflection.
 
Nora Lawrence, Storm King Senior Curator, commented, “What I love most about working at Storm King is being able to present art in a way no other place can. I am looking forward to watching ‘The Crisis’ change as the grasses grow up and into it and the seasons shift. In collaboration with Rashid, we were able to place ‘The Crisis’ in a central location on-site where visitors can view it both from above and from a closer vantage point. These various physical approaches invite the multiplicity of interpretations that Rashid intends for this work and allow space for visitors to contemplate the striking new relevance that The Crisis has taken on in today’s moment.”
 
The work—a sixteen-foot-tall, yellow pyramidal steel structure—is set within a field of native grasses, which Storm King has worked to reintroduce to its landscape and cultivate over the last 25 years. Over the course of the presentation, these grasses will grow up within and around the geometric frame, integrating it into the very fabric of Storm King.

“UNRAVELED: Confronting The Fabric of Fiber Art” a group show opening on April 17 and on view through May 28, 2021. Curated by @indiracesarine, the exhibition will feature textile and fiber-based artworks by 40 contemporary women artists. “UNRAVELED: Confronting The Fabric of Fiber Art” explores in depth the themes and techniques of the medium through the works of female-identifying artists working with natural and synthetic fiber, fabric, and yarn. 

The exhibition presents figurative and abstract works that address our lived experience and history through the lens of women weaving, knotting, twining, plaiting, coiling, pleating, lashing, and interlacing. Narratives of self-identification, race, religion, gender, sexuality, our shared experience, as well as protest and the patriarchy are literally "unraveled" through embroidery, felt, woven and hooked rugs, braided and sewn hair, sewn fabrics, discarded clothing, cross-stitching, repurposed materials and more.

Looking at photos of the work, reading up on artists, this exhibit is FRESH, PROVOCATIVE, (MATURE) and well worth a visit if you can make it there.

Artist Orly Cogan featured in “UNRAVELED: Confronting The Fabric of Fiber Art.”
