What is called the imagination (from image, magi, magic, magician, etc.) is a practical vector from the soul. It stores all data, and can be called on to solve all our “problems.” The imagination is the projection of ourselves past our sense of ourselves as “things.” Imagination (image) is all possibility, because from the image, the initial circumscribed energy, any use (idea) is possible. And so begins that image’s use in the world. Possibility is what moves us. —Amiri Baraka, “The Revolutionary Theatre”,Liberator, July 1965 We begin this welcome with the words of the profound poet- slavery and its aftermath remains a strategic element of activist, Amiri Baraka as we believe these words set the tone of this contemporary art’s transformative power.

  • Genevieve Gaignard: Counterfeit Currency
    PRESS CONTACT: Maureen Sullivan Red Art Projects, 917.846.4477 [email protected] GENEVIEVE GAIGNARD: COUNTERFEIT CURRENCY Exhibition Dates: June 5-August 17, 2018 Opening Reception: Tuesday, June 5, 6-8pm The FLAG Art Foundation, 545 West 25th Street, NY The FLAG Art Foundation is pleased to present Genevieve Gaignard: Counterfeit Currency, the artist’s first NY solo exhibition, from June 5-August 17, 2018, on its 10th floor. The exhibition of new self-portraits and collages, all created in Florida, continues Gaignard’s interest in the performance of race, gender presentation, beauty standards, and class, through fictional personas and staged environments. The title, Counterfeit Currency, addresses the inherent complexities of self-presentation, noting that the way one appears to others is often incongruent with the way in which they see themselves, yielding a feeling of displacement and fraudulence. Through a variety of female archetypes, Gaignard explores her own existence as a mixed-race woman of color, revealing the malleability of identity as something both self-constructed and culturally affected. In addition to photographic works, the artist will also present a new series of collages that combine vintage wallpaper and magazine cutouts to render dreamlike and satirical narratives. In her full-floor installation at FLAG, Gaignard creates multiple “mise-en-abîme” environments in which objects depicted in her cinematic photographs and collages are present in the gallery’s space. Incorporating personal and politically-loaded objects, one vignette is furnished with vintage wall paper, rattan furniture, and a spring of porcelain black panther figurines, while another holds appearance-altering beauty products, such as skin-bleaching creams, face masks, and makeup.

  • “My Girl”—The Temptations (1964) Added to the National Registry: 2017 Essay by Mark Ribowsky (Guest Post)*
    “My Girl”—The Temptations (1964) Added to the National Registry: 2017 Essay by Mark Ribowsky (guest post)* The Temptations, c. 1964 The Temptations’ 1964 recording of “My Girl” came at a critical confluence for the group, the Motown label, and a culture roiling with the first waves of the British invasion of popular music. The five-man cell of disparate souls, later to be codified by black disc jockeys as the “tall, tan, talented, titillating, tempting Temptations,” had been knocking around Motown’s corridors and studio for three years, cutting six failed singles before finally scoring on the charts that year with Smokey Robinson’s cleverly spunky “The Way You Do the Things You Do” that winter. It rose to number 11 on the pop chart and to the top of the R&B chart, an important marker on the music landscape altered by the Beatles’ conquest of America that year. Having Smokey to guide them was incalculably advantageous. Berry Gordy, the former street hustler who had founded Motown as a conduit for Detroit’s inner-city voices in 1959, invested a lot of trust in the baby-faced Robinson, who as front man of the Miracles delivered the company’s seminal number one R&B hit and million-selling single, “Shop Around.” Four years later, in 1964, he wrote and produced Mary Wells’ “My Guy,” Motown’s second number one pop hit. Gordy conquered the black urban market but craved the broader white pop audience. The Temptations were riders on that train. Formed in 1959 by Otis Williams, a leather-jacketed street singer, their original lineup consisted of Williams, Elbridge “Al” Bryant, bass singer Melvin Franklin and tenors Eddie Kendricks and Paul Williams.

  • Diane Rosenstein
    DIANE ROSENSTEIN The New New: Ray Anthony Barrett, Aaron Fowler, Genevieve Gaignard, Tschabalala Self, Michael Shultis, and Jason Stopa October 17 – November 28, 2015 Gallery Hours: Tuesday - Saturday, 10am – 6:00 pm Opening: Saturday, October 17th, 2015, 6:00 – 8:00 pm Diane Rosenstein Gallery is pleased to announce The New New, an exhibition of painting, drawing, mixed-media, and collage by six emerging artists from New York and Los Angeles: Ray Anthony Barrett, Aaron Fowler, Genevieve Gaignard, Tschabalala Self, Michael Shultis, and Jason Stopa. The works in this show are multi-dimensional, with some artists using heavy impasto, collage, or flirting with the intersection of painting and sculpture. Connecting the varied practices in The New New is an explicit use of text – song lyrics, art theory, slogans, and commercial branding - in a formally exciting interplay between word, image and painting. Ray Anthony Barrett’s recent drawings take art historian and curator Darby English’s writing as a starting point. English was concerned with the nature of Black art (and what happens if and when Black artists stop making it). Barrett’s ink on paper drawings, such as STOP, use repeated text in alternating sequences to create provocative, thought-provoking statements. Aaron Fowler weaves personal narrative into mythic allegory and often depicts himself as a Pilgrim traversing a post-apocalyptic landscape. In Aaron Fowler Looks For A Way Out of the City of Destruction, the artist incorporates materials as varied as glass doors, oatmeal, mirrors, CDs, clothing, and hair into an epic self-portrait at once imposing and fragile. Genevieve Gaignard uses alter egos in often humorous self-portraiture to question our relationship to personae, identity, and popular culture.
