Basil Kincaid “River, Frog and Crescent Moon”
Venus over Manhattan
This event has ended.
Celebrating improvisation, freedom of imagination, and a continuous process of self-discovery through making, St. Louis, Missouri, and Accra-based Basil Kincaid is a post-disciplinary artist known for textile compositions that mine what he calls his “spiritual inheritance.” On September 7, 2022, Venus Over Manhattan will present the artist’s first New York solo exhibition, featuring a series of recent quilted, embroidered, and sculptured works. Kincaid’s pieces are often made from “emotionally charged materials”, including the cast-off clothes of loved ones, and involve a time-intensive collage technique that channels the inheritance of his multi-generational familial practice of quilting. The exhibition will be on view through October 8th at the gallery’s Upper East Side location.
