Join us for two powerful new exhibitions that interrogate image-making, colour, and visual culture as tools of both disruption and expression. Wavelengths: Colour | Code | Concept, curated by Gallery Director/Curator Pamela Edmonds, draws on the Gallery’s permanent collection to investigate how colour operates as both material and message within abstraction and conceptual art. In parallel, Broad/Cast: Reclaiming Representation, curated by Geoffrey Webster as the final project of his curatorial internship at the Gallery, brings together lens-based works by artists who challenge and redefine portrayals of Black identity in media and culture.
The public is invited to the opening reception on Thursday, July 17, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, with remarks starting at 6:30 PM. In conjunction with Broad/Cast, the evening will feature a reading by poet Dáminí Awóyígà, and a movement-based performance by multidisciplinary artists Kay MacDonald and I’thandi Munro. Admission is free and all are welcome.
