Adler Guerrier: Conditions and Forms for blck Longevity | Open now until August 26
Adler Guerrier (b. 1975, Port-au- Prince)...examines the public space of the street as a site for civil discourse and disobedience and the more private realm of the home and yard as places for meditative observation and reverie—addressing both as political spheres. Guerrier’s new project for CAAM continues his investigation of history’s relationship to landscape, picturing what the artist has described as the “limited utopias” enacted within domestic gardens, outdoor spaces, and private yards.
