Katherine Bradford — Flying Woman
In Flying Woman, Katherine Bradford presents a body of paintings centered on figures in motion—floating, leaping, and suspended against fields of luminous color. The exhibition highlights Bradford’s distinctive ability to balance vulnerability and strength, using simplified forms and saturated palettes to explore freedom, risk, and emotional resilience.
Nicole Eisenman — Fixed Crane
In Fixed Crane, Nicole Eisenman reimagines monumentality as something unstable and deeply human. The sculpture resists clean resolution, instead lingering in tension—between humor and discomfort, strength and fragility. Eisenman’s work invites viewers to reconsider who monuments serve and what stories they quietly uphold.
Deborah Roberts— I'm
In I’m, Deborah Roberts confronts the narratives that shape Black childhood and identity through layered collage and portraiture. Her figures—composed from fragments of media, history, and imagination—stand powerful, vulnerable, and wholly human.
Njideka Akunyili Crosby — Predecessors
Njideka Akunyili Crosby layers Nigeria and America in the same image—collage and transfer meet painting to map diasporic identity with intimacy and complexity.
