Opening today! Lavaughan Jenkins "Weight of Things" our first solo exhibition with the Boston-based artist. "In this series of new paintings created during the artist’s residencies at the Provincetown Art Center and Addison Gallery of American Art in 2021-22, Black women are at the center. Jenkins’ representations of women honor the roles that specific women have played in his life, as well as the outsized and unfairly weighty role that Black women play in bending the arc of history ever more toward justice. Anonymous, expressionless, as well as captivating, poised, and powerful, the women in these new paintings are icons of resilience and beauty; the focal point of the work and of the stories the artist most wants to tell."
