Those Were the Days

The genesis of the series was inspired by Bazawule’s memories of the faded black-and-white photos that lined the walls of his childhood home in Accra, Ghana – images of his family elegantly dressed in their Sunday best that stirred a deep sense of nostalgia, which then grew into a strong desire to bring those moments back to life. Later, while on tour in Morocco, Bazawule stumbled upon a vintage photograph of a woman standing in the very same place as he was at that moment, but 50 years before.

The work illustrates December as she chronicles the different stages of her life by depicting girls that are meant to be the artist’s avatar. These avatars inhabit multiple spiritual and emotional states with a bold and, at times, bewildered strength and vulnerability.

The Wayward Passage

“The Wayward Passage” is the first exhibition for artist Antonio Scott Nichols in his hometown of Atlanta. On view from October 27 to November 25, the nine large-scale paintings and three smaller still life paintings comprising “The Wayward Passage” reimagine the Great Migration era in 1920s Atlanta and transport viewers on an Afro-Futuristic journey to Saturn. Layering references from the 1920s–a pinnacle era of Black American artistry–and contemporary references 100 years into the future, Nichols envisions Black Americans escaping to Saturn. The paintings, when viewed in chronological order, capture fragmented moments in this imagined future, juxtaposing the experience of those who went to Saturn with those who stayed on Earth. Inspired by imaginative authors like Octavia Butler, Nichols utilizes fragmented visual storytelling and time as tools, layering historical references, contemporary subjects, and fantastical elements to construct images of Black liberation.

Although painting has been integral to his forty-year career as a visual artist, The Eyes Were Always On Us consists of works exclusively made with spray paint, oil sticks, gesso and acrylic on canvas, paper and quilt.
