EVENTUALLY THE PENDULUM SWINGS
May 3, 2014 - June 16, 2014
Lester Merriweather
NOTE: This is a Seed Space exhibition, curated by Rachel Bubis. Seed Space was founded by Adrienne Outlaw.
Merriweather's collages use imagery from printed advertising material in fashion and lifestyle magazines. In re-contextualizing these images, Merriweather examines ads that promote notions of racial prominence and inferiority.
