Where My Girls At? New Editions from Tandem Press
October 4, 2024 @ 10:00 am - November 15, 2024 @ 4:00 pm
FreeTandem Press is pleased to host an exhibition featuring new editions by artists Derrick Adams, Alison Saar, and Dyani White Hawk. The works, which recently debuted at The Armory Show in New York, represent a variety of print techniques and touch on subjects ranging from race, representation, beauty, and abstraction.
Sixty-two colors make up Derrick Adams’ Where My Girls At? a print that extends on a previous series with Tandem, depicting geometric renderings of mannequin heads. Alison Saar described Mutiny of the Sable Venus as one of her most complex woodcuts to date. Multiple woodblocks were employed to create an image of an African American woman holding a sythe in one hand and a conch shell in the other, fiercely calling out for emancipation. Dyani White Hawk’s dynamic series of layered abstract prints reference the kapemni, a symbol depicting two teepees connected at their point mirroring the earth and sky, the spiritual and the human.
Opening Reception: Friday, October 4, 5-9pm
