GROUP SHOW
and I will wear you in my heart of heart
May 1st – August 13th, 2021
The FLAG Art Foundation presents and I will wear you
in my heart of heart, a group exhibition of contemporary
paintings and textiles on view May 1-August 13, 2021,
on it’s 9th floor. Centering on a gesture of care, the exhibition
explores the myriad ways in which 35 artists evoke tenderness
through depictions of lovers and friends, familial exchanges,
moments of solitude, and even a cowboy and his pastel pink
unicorn. Heart of heart includes recent and new works created
for the exhibition that embody the cross-generational resurgence
in figuration as a mode of exploring identity, cultural histories,
and personal experiences.
