FigureGround Gallery Viewing Hours
Feb
13

FigureGround Gallery Viewing Hours

Come by to view FigureGround, the solo exhibit by Dang.

Dan Gay (dang) is a multimedia artist whose sculptural work has ranged from monumental to minuscule, appearing in films, installations, advertisements, museums and festivals. Dang's ongoing series of improvisational portrait painting remains central to his personal studio work.

Through this series, I’ve been looking at the frayed edges of our perception, our distance and connection—the vulnerability and beauty of being an individual in the world and the vulnerability of being together. I’ve seen reflections of me—and of all of us—that came into focus within each painting. It is an exploration. A challenge. A raw familiarity with what it might mean to be a person. I hope you see something familiar in this work too.

SkinFolk: George Clinton: Radical Black Nonconformists
Feb
27

SkinFolk: George Clinton: Radical Black Nonconformists

Join us at ADX for an intimate discussion with author Sharyll Burroughs as she shares a profile on Black Radical, George Clinton. Sheryll is developing an anthology of essays entitled Skinfolk, a collection of my observations on human beings whose Blackness is incidental to their nonconformity. At first glance, these observations may seem irrational—but they are undeniably true.

Rather than focusing solely on identity, Burroughs celebrates what makes each subject an outlier and, more significantly, their fundamental humanity. The human experience is complex and unpredictable. Her primary interest revolves around those driven to remain true to themselves. Individuals who reject tradition in favor of originality—artists, athletes, writers, and more.

An evening of music, moving images, spoken word, and collective dialogue on the nonconformist blueprint. Lend your voice to the conversation shaping the Skinfolk anthology.

All ages and skill levels are welcome. Come solo or bring a friend! This is a low-key, bring-your-own-project gathering where you can work, chat, and enjoy being in community. Knitting, watercolor, doodling, lino carving, sketching—anything goes.

Feel free to bring a snack to share if you’d like, along with your own art supplies and beverage of choice. Let’s slow down, make things with our hands, and create together—now more than ever.
