The Indigenous Amazonian artist Denilson Baniwa (born 1984) tries to lay these biases bare in his work, exposing “colonial fictions” and calling attention to the ongoing effects of colonization.
This spring and summer, Art@Bainbridge hosts Denilson Baniwa: Under the Skin of History , co-organized by the Museum, Princeton University’s Brazil LAB, and the Department of Anthropology.
Seen together in Reciting Women , Khalilah Sabree and Alia Bensliman's paintings take on a contemplative form of storytelling, or recitation, that draws on memories and histories to peer into the future with resilience and hope.
