Join us for an enriching guided tour of our newest exhibition "Deborah Roberts: Consequences of being," led by the Everson Museum of Art's Director & CEO, Elizabeth Dunbar ✨

"Consequences of being" brings together large-format paintings, works on paper, and— for the first time in Deborah Roberts’ career—ceramic sculpture.

The exhibition marks a significant expansion of the Austin, Texas–based artist’s practice and a deepening investigation into the histories and legacies of colonialism.

Roberts, who received her MFA from Syracuse University, uses collage to approach identity as something fragmented and continually reconstructed, reclaiming found materials and images to examine how Black bodies are seen, positioned, and understood globally.

‼️Final Call‼️ to experience "Ann Clarke: Under the Canopy" before it closes Sunday, June 7.

Textile artist Ann Clarke's body of work presented in "Under the Canopy" was shaped by her mother’s physical and mental decline in the years before her passing.

A ghostly knit of her mother’s hand evokes the intimacy that comes with sharing skill and labor. Images of nature exist alongside others that draw on the material culture of domestic environments, such as flower arrangements, vases, and empty chairs.

Grouped together, the works in Under the Canopy create space for both artist and viewer to contemplate human relationships, mortality, and shared labor.

"Ann Clarke: Under the Canopy" is part of the Everson CNY Artist Initiative, an exhibition program that celebrates the multi-faceted talents of regional artists. The CNY Artist Initiative is made possible with support from Sandra Hurd and Joel Potash.
