Exhibition Opening, Stamp Gallery: "Pink is a Color That Feels Like Love"
In Pink is a Color That Feels Like Love, Philadelphia-based guest curator Katy Scarlett brings together three artists, Damien Davis, Brandon Dean, and Delano Dunn, whose work is deeply invested in the formal use of color paired with specific motifs in order to reflect on issues of representation. The artists address stereotypes related to race, gender, sexuality, and class, figuring color imbued with broader cultural meaning as a central subject in order to critique dominant paradigms.
Each artist factors color in their work in different ways that prompt us to consider: What are the social and political meanings attached to color? In what ways does color, infused with symbolic value, shape our perceptions of the world around us? In what ways does it shape our perceptions of ourselves and other communities?
Opening reception: August 29, 2018 from 6-8PM in Stamp Gallery. Light refreshments will be served.
