Antwaun Sargent’s New Black Vanguard Exhibition Arrives in London

In Antwaun Sargent’s Saatchi Gallery exhibition, Black bodies are present in the works of all of the photographers on show, but no two of them portray the Black body in the same way

Antwaun Sargent describes his groundbreaking exhibition The New Black Vanguard: Photography Between Art and Fashion as a ‘movement’ – and it is. The exhibition brings together the work of 15 innovative Black photographers, based internationally, whose works blur the lines between fashion, photography and art. Now on display at the Saatchi Gallery, The New Black Vanguard provides a refreshing gaze through the lens of several of the brightest young, Black photographers, including the likes of Campbell Addy, Nadine Ijewere and Tyler Mitchell amongst others.

Interview: Artist Turiya Adkins at “Helmut Lang Seen By Antwaun Sargent: YOBWOC” The multi-disciplinary talent outlines her powerful contribution to a recent group show Multi-disciplinary Black artist Turiya Adkins is perhaps best known for her powerful works that explore a connection between Black track and field athletes and the historic Great Migration across the US. Stemming from that body of work, Adkins displayed the painting “COWBOY” during the Helmut Lang Seen By Antwaun Sargent: YOBWOC exhibition at NYC’s Hannah … https://coolhunting.com/culture/interview-artist-turiya-adkins-at-helmut-lang-seen-by-antwaun-sargent-yobwoc/

Knowles has also carved out space for her lyrics to be experienced beyond their aural effect. In works like “Seventy States,” a digital homage to the trailblazing black feminist artist Betye Saar commissioned by the Tate Museum in London in 2017, and the lyric book she released (also titled A Seat at the Table), Knowles employs text and image to give her lyrics a sculptural quality. The book reworks lines from the album’s songs into black geometric shapes set in white space, a practice suggestive of Glenn Ligon’s use of repeated phrases in works like his seminal 1990 painting “Untitled (I Feel Most Colored When I Am Thrown Against a Sharp White Background).” (The piece borrows the line from writer Zora Neale Hurston’s celebrated 1928 essay “How It Feels to Be Colored Me.”) Knowles’s own lines appear poetically arranged on the page, printed repeatedly to amplify the weight of her words.

"This 2023 presentation celebrates the remarkable figurative work of Barkley L. Hendricks (1945–2017) through a focused selection of portraiture drawn from private and public collections. This pioneering American artist, who counted the Frick among his favorite museums, continues to inspire artists and designers today...

Barkley L. Hendricks revolutionized contemporary portraiture with his vivid depictions of Black subjects that emphasize the dignity and individuality of his sitters. Beginning in the late 1960s, his work drew from and challenged traditions of European art, and The Frick Collection—with its iconic portraits by Rembrandt, Bronzino, Van Dyck, and others—was one of his favorite museums.

Through a selection of some of Hendricks’s finest portraits displayed in the context of the Frick’s holdings, this exhibition celebrates and explores the remarkable work of this pioneering American painter with an unprecedented display of paintings drawn from private and public collections. Organized by #AimeeNg, Curator at the Frick, and Consulting Curator #AntwaunSargent, Barkley L. Hendricks: Portraits at the Frick considers the complex place of European painting in Hendricks’s art and the evolving role of the Frick in modern American culture."

🎥Reposted from @frickcollection

"Watch as Curator Aimee Ng and Consulting Curator Antwaun Sargent introduce 'Barkley L. Hendricks: Portraits at the Frick...' The show presents fourteen of the finest portraits by the American painter displayed in the context of the Frick—one of his favorite museums—and explores the enduring legacies both of Hendricks’s pioneering work and of the museum itself.
