About the Exhibition
Bringing together over 60 works, this exhibition will chart Davis's practice across painting, sculpture, works on paper. Davis's work captures the intricacies of Black life with tenderness and depth, linking personal and collective narratives in ways that profoundly resonate with our times. Arranged chronologically, the exhibition will feature work made from 2007 until his untimely death in 2015, addressing a wide range of subjects, including politics, family histories, mythology, race, architecture, and visual culture.
