FAITH RINGGOLD: AMERICAN PEOPLE
Wednesday 23 February, 2022, I saw and enjoyed the New Museum's Faith Ringgold exhibition. I am most familiar with her book Tar Beach, which I read to my now grown daughter dozens of times during her pre-school years. And I have also long known of her figurative painting and textile works, so I was enamored to see all of this in the context of her more expansive oeuvre. She is one of the most influential artists of her generation. Her work links a variety of practices, i.e., painting, quilting, story telling, book writing and education. www.newmuseum.org/exhibitions/view/fait…
