The Nasher Museum of Art may be closed but we can still experience their wonderful exhibition by artist Ebony G. Patterson that evokes a night garden. Join the Triangle Friends of African American Arts at this special, interactive event that will be presented on Zoom. A Museum Docent will share images from the exhibition and lead us in a discussion about these amazing works of art. Register to receive an online link to join this virtual event.
Nasher Museum of Art Exhibition
Artist Ebony G. Patterson is known for drawings, tapestries, videos, sculptures and installations that involve surfaces layered with flowers, glitter, lace and beads. Her work investigates forms of embellishment as they relate to youth culture within disenfranchised communities. Her neo-baroque works address violence, masculinity, “bling,” visibility and invisibility within the post-colonial context of her native Kingston and within black youth culture globally. This exhibition focuses on the role that gardens have played in her practice, referenced as spaces of both beauty and burial, environments filled with fleeting aesthetics and mourning.
Unfortunately, this event is now full. You can register for our waitlist.
We are planning another great event in November. Please check back. We will announce
it on October 7. We hope you will join us!
