Chromatic Cogitations: Rhythm Reboot
RedLine's 2021 Annual Resident Artist Exhibition
Curated by Rosie Gordon-Wallace
VENUE: RedLine Contemporary Art Center/ 2350 Arapahoe Street, Denver CO 80205
Chromatic Cogitations: Rhythm Reboot brings together thirty-one artistic voices that employ a variety of colors, images, and artistic strategies to reset the rhythm of their individual practices. Viewed collectively, their work responds to shifting political and societal pressures while referencing art historical positions from the 1970s through today that mobilized postcolonial movements, the recognition of outsider art, and formed expressions of radical social emancipation. Their content includes passionate responses to climate change, ecosystem loss, blackness and masculinity, heritage, legacy, hierarchy, and the emergence of gender stories that have hitherto been silenced and rendered invisible. - Rosie Gordon-Wallace, Curator
