A descendant of Bizen sword makers, Miya Ando spent her childhood among Buddhist priests in a temple in Okayama, Japan, and later, in California. She combines the traditional techniques of her ancestry with modern industrial technology, skillfully transforming sheets of metal into ephemeral, abstract paintings suffused with color. Working across two and three dimensions, Ando’s oeuvre contains abstract painting and sculpture, including large-scale public art pieces that reflect the transitory essence of life. Thomas Broadbent | Front Room Gallery | Booth S-213 Thomas Broadbent has shown extensively throughout the U.S. as well as internationally. Broadbent’s work won the Pulse Prize for best solo booth at Pulse Art Fair. His work was subsequently featured in “Mission to Space” at the Children’s Art Museum in Manhattan. His work is in the permanent collection of the National Museum of Wildlife Art. Broadbent’s numerous solo exhibitions include the Visual Art’s Center of New Jersey, Croxhapox Gallery (Gent, Belgium) Voorkamer Gallery (Lier, Belgium) Inspace gallery (Beijing, China) and the Newark Arts Council. Broadbent’s work has been reviewed in The New York Times, The New Jersey Star-Ledger, NY Arts, The Brooklyn Rail and numerous other publications.

Photo courtesy of artist. Decolonization is defined as the act of freeing a country/people from being dependent on and oppressed by a more aggressive culture. For this evening of performance art nine artists will take on race, sexuality, and body politics to fuel “Your Decolonizing Toolkit.” You are invited to talk about race with Dominique Duroseau in her piece "A Rap on Race with Rice;" this literal work starkly contrasts Shani Ha’s textile sculptures that are an abstract investigation of social boundaries. To break conventions of silencing Kanene Holder will perform her word association piece based on current affairs and David Antonio Cruz will perform “The Piano Piece,” a celebrated piece that deals with his queer-Latino identity, on the street. The evening will culminate in actions of deconstructing as exhibited in the performance collaboration between Maria Hupfield, Esther Neff and IV Castellanos In light of America’s current political situation where complex issues of discrimination based on race and sexuality are being investigated, decolonization of the mind is more important than ever.

  • Exhibition Amillionlittlepieces by David Antonio Cruz Opens in Kresge Gallery
    RAMAPO COLLEGE OF NEW JERSEY Office of Marketing and Communications Press Release January 19, 2018 Contact: Angela Daidone E-mail: [email protected] Phone: 201-684-7477 Exhibition amillionlittlepieces by David Antonio Cruz Opens in Kresge Gallery MAHWAH, N.J. -- On Wednesday, January 31, in the Kresge Gallery of the Berrie Center for Performing and Visual Arts, the exhibition amillionlittlepieces by David Antonio Cruz opens to the public. There will be an opening reception from 5 to 7 p.m. with an artist’s talk at 6 p.m. The exhibition continues through March 2. David Antonio Cruz is an interdisciplinary New York-based artist who is receiving increasing critical acclaim for his painting, video, and performance work. The exhibition at Ramapo features striking psychological figure paintings, as well as other media including performance-related objects. Cruz offers the following statement about his work: “I explore the nuances of genderqueerness, race, and public and private spaces, and the invisibility of the brown/black body through the use of portraiture and opera-like performances. I draw from queer discourse and texts, and the politicization of the brown/black male body. I’m interested in interjecting the portraiture canon with brown and black bodies to further complicate heteronormative perception of male identity, the male to male gaze, and the intersectionality of gender fluid and queer bodies that are not often discussed or represented in history, and marginalized in our society.” David Antonio Cruz was born in Philadelphia, and received a BFA in Painting at Pratt Institute and an MFA from Yale University.

  • THE BASS MUSEUM of ART 2100 Collins Avenue Miami Beach, FL 33139
    THE BASS MUSEUM OF ART 2100 Collins Avenue Miami Beach, FL 33139 www.thebass.org FORTHE IMMEDIATE RELEASE BASSTHE BASS PRESENTS AN EXHIBITION & IMMERSIVE ART EXPERIENCE BY MICKALENE THOMAS TO OPEN DURING MIAMI ART WEEK Mickalene Thomas: Better Nights on view December 1, 2019 – September 27, 2020 MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (NOV 19, 2019) – The Bass, Miami Beach’s contemporary art museum, will open Mickalene Thomas: Better Nights, an installation that transforms the galleries into an immersive art experience for the duration of the exhibition, starting on Sunday, December 1. The exhibition is inspired by the parties the artist’s mother hosted with friends and family during the 1970s and 80s to fundraise for their theater productions, including 'Put a Little Sugar in my Bowl,' as well as to raise money for her treatment of sickle cell anemia. First introduced with Better Days in 2013, this new iteration unfolds into the second chapter of Thomas’ transformations of social “experiment” pleasures by re-imagining a black radical aesthetic. The installation embodies a feeling of home, yet also a speakeasy, conceptually reconstructed according to the domestic aesthetic of the period, including faux wood paneling, wallpaper and custom designed and reupholstered furniture with the artist’s signature textiles and mirrors. An extension of Thomas’ artistic universe, the installation plays with artifice, developed through intersections between real and faux elements. This exhibition incorporates both work by the artist and a selection of work by emerging and prominent black artists curated by Thomas. Exhibiting artists include: painting and photography by Nina Chanel Abney, Derrick Adams, David Antonio Cruz, Lyle Ashton Harris, Paul Mpagi Sepuya, Xaviera Simmons, John Edmonds, Alexandria Smith, Adrienne Raquel, Arielle Bobb-Willis, Micaiah Carter; and video work by Christie Neptune, Devin N.

  • David Antonio Cruz One Day I'll Turn the Corner and I'll Be Ready for It
    David Antonio Cruz One Day I’ll Turn the Corner and I’ll Be Ready For It September 7 – October 26, 2019 moniquemeloche is thrilled to present One Day I’ll Turn the Corner and I’ll Be Ready For It, an exhibition of new paintings by David Antonio Cruz. This is Cruz’s first exhibition with the gallery and his first in Chicago. David Antonio Cruz explores the intersectionality of queerness and race through painting, sculpture, and performance. Focusing on queer, trans, and genderfluid communities of color, Cruz examines the violence perpetrated against their members, conveying his subjects both as specific individuals and as monumental signifiers for large and urgent systemic concerns. Using a vast trove of images mined from the internet, including the personal social media accounts of his subjects, Cruz brings these individuals out of the shadows and into the light. He inserts these individuals’ likenesses into lush, sensuous compositions directly inspired by the aspirational aesthetic of luxury and fashion, creating a dissonance that critically elevates his black and brown subjects while also emphasizing the extreme injustice of their plights. To further enrich these portraits with depths of meaning, Cruz employs a unique and coded visual vocabulary. Baroque background patterns reveal real plant types, whose native regions relate to locales where these victims lived or were found. Certain colors hold certain meanings (green relates to immigration, for example), a formal code that evokes the charged relationship between skin tone and identity. Organic, anthropomorphic forms peer out from behind figures, witnesses that break the fourth wall, inviting us in to these newly-transparent worlds.

  • David Antonio Cruz Alwaysagoodtime January 24 – March 2, 2014 Opening Reception: Friday, January 24, 7-9Pm
    For Immediate Release Contact: Eric Heist ([email protected]) + Kikuko Tanaka ([email protected]) David Antonio Cruz alwaysagoodtime January 24 – March 2, 2014 Opening reception: Friday, January 24, 7-9pm Momenta Art is pleased to present a solo exhibition of the work of David Antonio Cruz. Cruz’s work draws from 1950's Americana, classic films and fashion, as well as historical events to present a psychologically-charged, shifting, and unnamed space. Informed by queer, diasporic Latino experience, his work reinterprets narratives and invisible histories of migrating people in search of home. His work questions and negotiates what's being offered while partially obscuring the familiar. Cruz’s installation will combine domestic elements to simulate a living space of video, objects and paint- ings. Wooden window frames and doorways based on postcolonial architecture in San Juan, Puerto Rico, as well as china cabinets, a cake-like sculpture, and a paper plane-festooned chair will complete the interior. A recent live stage version of a video within a video titled Takeabite includes a chorus, orchestra, and a large cast of actors. Desire and repulsion are echoed in the video through the image of a defiled cake, with references to 1950’s domesticity and gender expectations set against a tropical landscape inhabited by forbidding and alluring sexualized figures. The temptation of integration and the opposing fear of lost identity are amplified by a soundtrack from Snow White enticing her to “take a bite”. Cruz’s work does not attempt to reconcile the forces of control and abandon, but to maintain a balance of the familiar and the unknown.
