Join us in celebrating the opening of Out of Easy Reach curated by Allison Glenn at Gallery 400.

Countering conventional accounts of art history, which have often overlooked the artistic contributions of women of color, Out of Easy Reach presents 24 artists from the Black and Latina diasporas through artworks created from 1980 to 2018. The exhibition features myriad ways that three generations of artists use abstraction as a tool to explore both personal and universal histories, with an emphasis on mapping, migration, archives, landscape, vernacular culture, language, and the body.  Out of Easy Reach is a cross-institutional exhibition on view at Gallery 400, DePaul Art Museum, and the Rebuild Foundation’s Stony Island Arts Bank from April 26-August 5, 2018.

The exhibition at Gallery 400 will include artworks concerned with spatial politics, mapping, and migration from Lisa Alvarado, Torkwase Dyson, Leslie Hewitt, Juliana Huxtable, Yvette Mayorga, Howardena Pindell, Martine Syms, and Zipporah Camille Thompson.

The event is free and open to all!

Out of Easy Reach at  DePaul Art Museum opens Thursday, April 26 and opens at the Rebuild Foundation’s Stony Island Arts Bank on Saturday, April 28.
