Opening: Black and White

Join us on February 28th from 5 to 7 PM for the opening reception of Black and White, an exhibition of monochromatic prints and sculptures by Matt Magee pulled from Tamarind Institute, Woolworth Publications, Manneken Press, Obee Editions, and the artist’s studio. Together, these works show the development of Magee’s mark making since 2019. The works in this exhibit lay bare the semantics of Magee’s visual language, which is influenced by location, collaborators, and artistic inspirations. With their grid-like arrays of non-representational forms and pared-back palettes, these works trace the development of asemic writing in the artist’s practice and ask how visual language might function in a post-literate world.
