Simone Leigh's third exhibition with Tilton Gallery opens in New York | Gender and art | Scoop.it

NEW YORK, NY.- Tilton Gallery presents Moulting, Simone Leigh’s third exhibition with the gallery, from March 3rd to April 25th, 2015.

In this exhibition, Simone Leigh expands her exploration of ceramic-based and multimedia sculpture to fill the gallery with majestic installations that celebrate the woman’s role in African and African American history. Long concerned with making manifest the role of women’s work in object-making as a vehicle to investigate questions of history, tradition, race and identity, Leigh’s current exhibition expands the possibilities both in her use of materials and in her approach to sculpture as performance.
