Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | Foreword : the unsolitary artist / Elizabeth Alexander -- Painting as incantation / Julie Mehretu -- 'A conscious syncretizer' : the connective tissue of the career of Ficre Ghebreyesus / Lowery Stokes Sims -- Plates -- Moving forward : diasporas as practice in the paintings of Ficre Ghebreyesus / Emily Kuhlmann -- Ficre Ghebreyesus biography Published to accompany an exhibition presented by the Museum of the African Diaspora (MoAD) in San Francisco, this new volume showcases the work of Eritrean-born artist Ficre Ghebreyesus. Many of the paintings featured are abstracts, studies of geometric color that highlight the artist's delight in the material qualities of oil paint on canvas. This collection brings together more than a dozen of Ghebreyesus' finest works, focusing on abstractly rendered and vivid painted landscapes, replete with water imagery and aquatic life. In all of these evocative, and often surreal, landscapes, the viewer senses myriad influences, from the craft markets of Eritrea to the musical polyrhythms of the black diaspora, the cultural layering speaking directly to the forces that shaped the artist's life |
