2019 MAD Artist Studios alumni Anthony Olubunmi Akinbola will lead a private tour exclusively for MAD Members of Camouflage, his new solo exhibition at Sean Kelly New York. Camouflage is an enduring theme of Akinbola’s paintings, which the artist creates from durag textiles, symbolizing Black identity and the artist’s multicultural background. Rigorous studies in color theory and abstraction, the emotionally resonant works on view oscillate between loose improvisation and grid-like formalism.
6–6:30 pm: Private viewing with wine and beverages
6:30 pm: Tour with Akinbola followed by a Q&A with the artist
