From @artbasel > #ArtBaselMiamiBeach preview: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Drawing influence from popular music, fashion, literature, cultural and critical theory, and his own individual heritage, Jeffrey Gibson (@jeffrune) recontextualizes the familiar to offer a succinct commentary on cultural hybridity and the assimilation of modernist artistic strategies within contemporary art. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Gibson’s Cherokee and Choctaw lineage has imparted a recognizable aesthetic to his beaded works exploring narrative deconstructions of both image and language as transmitted through figuration. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ His sculptures and paintings seamlessly coalesce traditional Native American craft with contemporary cultural production and references, forming works that speak to the experience of an individual subjectivity within the larger narrative defining contemporary globalization. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Find his work on view at Art Basel Miami Beach presented by @robertsprojects 📍 booth J08 * * * * * * * * * * #miamiartweek repost in support of the arts.
