Prepare to visit worlds ahead of our time: #UtopianImagination! The third show in @fordfoundationgallery’s inaugural year, curated by @jaishri.abichandani, features 14 diverse artists whose futuristic narratives inspire wonder, joy & hope for our existence on an increasingly imperiled planet. With the understanding that (radical) #love is the answer to the violence presented in #PerilousBodies, this exhibition recognizes the difficulties of the task ahead. Utopias are increasingly hard to imagine in a world torn asunder by conflict. Using #sciencefiction to frame this interrogation, this exhibition presents objects, bodies, vessels, fragments created by artists over time that when pieced together, offer a vision of a future that includes all of us. Images: 1. #YinkaShinibare @shonibarestudio “Cloud 9” one of Shonibare’s earliest black astronaut sculptures-part of a two-decade exploration that imagines the survival of #BlackPeople as pioneers in space. The work explores themes of colonialism, post-colonialism and black aspiration. 2. #ZakOve @zakove “Sky Lark” And #LolaFlash @flash9 “Syzygy” (self portrait) an embodiment of her ancestors’ dreams of liberation. 4. #SaksAfridi @saks__ ‘The Prayer Catcher’. “If all your prayers were answered, would it change the world, or just yours?” ~ unknown #SpaceMosque The narrative explores greed & morality at war when prayer becomes the de facto global currency. The work asks us to reflect on what it is we pray for and to what end. 5. & 6. Zak Ove “Nubian Return” 7. #JulianaHuxtable @julianahuxtable “Lil’ Marvel” (self portrait) as a #transgender #BlackWoman provoking discourse on the power of her own image & heteronormative tropes of anatomy & the politics of the human body. 8. #MikaelOwunna @mikaelowunna “Infinite Essence”. Otherworldly images, black models transformed into #cosmic #ethereal beings. 9. #FarxiyoJaamac @hausofriya “Black Girls Live in Outer Space Too” series 10. #MarikoMori @marikomori #afrofuturistic #afrofuturism #futurism #blackness #blkcreatives #blackexcellence #artlover #artcollector #artcurator #artadvisory #destineeross @desti.knee & #joakimvonditmar (at Ford Foundation) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2kE8uBlsHi/?igshid=1r5b5bf9m8jva

So impressed with the gender inclusive toilets at @hayward.gallery and the @tate - which made for a more comfortable day for our trip down to London (leaving at 04.44am! ) visiting the Nan Goldin exhibition, #kissmygenders and the fabulous #lolaflash exhibition at @autographabp . Would love to mulitple post photos of these great exhibitions but my #instagramfeed is playing up!

OPEN TODAY 11-6 PM. NEW IN THE BOOKSHOP: MILITANT EROTICISM - THE ART+POSITIVE ARCHIVES (2018) • Edited by Dr. Daniel S. Berger, John Neff Texts by Daniel Berger, Debra Levine, Ray Navarro, John Neff, Hunter Reynolds, David Wojnarowicz • This book is the first survey of the art and practice of Art+Positive, a significant affinity group of ACT UP New York during the early years of the AIDS epidemic. Staging self-initiated actions, and also participating in larger demonstrations organized by ACT UP, Art+Positive practiced an improvisational approach to activism at the intersection of the AIDS crisis and the culture wars of the late 1980s and early 1990s. Their multiplatform projects were especially focused on fighting AIDS phobia, censorship, homophobia, misogyny, and racism within the art world. Members, collaborators, and contributors to Art+Positive included artists Lola Flash, Nan Goldin, Aldo Hernández, Zoe Leonard, Ray Navarro, Hunter Reynolds, Catherine (Saalfield) Gunn, Julie Tolentino, and David Wojnarowicz. • The Art+Positive archives, assembled by Hunter Reynolds in the mid-1990s, were out of public view for more than twenty years. Art collector and HIV/AIDS researcher Dr. Daniel Berger acquired the group’s archives in early 2015. Shortly thereafter, he and artist John Neff presented an exhibition of the archives at Iceberg Projects, Chicago. Militant Eroticism: The ART+Positive Archives documents that exhibition and is extensively illustrated with artworks, documents, protest ephemera, and meeting notes from the Art+Positive archives. Also included are essays by Berger, Neff, and former ACT UP member and scholar Debra Levine. These essays are presented alongside previously unpublished writings by Ray Navarro, Hunter Reynolds, and David Wojnarowicz. • Available via our website and in the bookshop today. • #worldfoodbooks #artpluspositive #actup #raynavarro #hunterreynolds #davidwojnarowicz #johnneff #debrahlevine #lolaflash #nangoldin #zoeleonard #aldohernandez #CatherineGunn #julietolentino #sternbergpress #militanteroticism (at WORLD FOOD BOOKS)
