“Care•ful/less” Solo Exhibition by Gerald A. Brown. Solo Gallery

Dedicated to the journey of self-actualization, Care•ful/less is a glimpse at the inherent friction occurring internally when realizing one’s fullest self. Tending to one’s gifts, flaws and dreams is messy and often conflicts with one’s desire to be more careless or more careful. Does the act of caring less make you more mindful of oneself? Or does being very careful make you deserving of care from others? Can negligence be advantageous and who does it primarily serve? At the intersection of optimism and bitterness, I wonder how caring am I really. This show is a moment of celebration and bereavement. In the midst of shedding old ways, this is a grand toast as well as salute to internal battle waged, within a young Black girl. 

“EARTH and LIFE” Solo Exhibition by Wayman Scott. Community Arts Gallery

EARTH AND LIFE, pays tribute to historical figures and bears witness contemporary struggles. It highlights the likes of Mother Mary Lang, who founded the first black catholic school in America, along with Frederick Douglass, and Elijah Cummings for their work toward civil rights and freedom of black people during their lives.  

The killing of unarmed black people prompted me to sculpt a new Pieta to highlight the value of black life. EARTH AND LIFE, displays an interpretation of Michael Angelo’s Pieta with Jesus and Mary as African American people to show that black lives matter.  Johnny J who models Jesus is a GNA and hospice aide who shared how his experience of police harassment effected is ability to trust police. Sharmean Y who models for Mary is a GNA has two brothers who serve as police officers. While both models have different experiences, they both support the movement for Black Lives. 

Free and Open to the Public Tuesday – Saturday from 10:00am to 5:00pm, Sunday from 12:00 to 5:00pm.
