Open Sessions Conversations: Chitra Ganesh & Ruby Onyinyechi Amanze
.
CG: “I am so glad that the Drawing Center has offered alternative axes, alignments, and contexts to situate your own work, thinking and growth––I would say that its mere presence, focus and decades long commitment to that focus, has sustained me in similar ways.”
.
ROA: “Drawing transcends all dividing factors, it is the most human form of expression. The DC has given me the freedom of simply being a human artist. It has been priceless to be in dialogue with other artists, who have their own relationship with the medium.”
.
Chitra Ganesh lives and works in Brooklyn. Her work has been shown at the Queens Museum, Queens; ZKM Gallery, Karlsruhe; and The Andy Warhol Museum, Pittsburgh.
.
Ruby Onyinyechi Amanze lives and works in New York and Philadelphia. Her work has been shown at the Open End Gallery, Chicago; Amsterdams Grafisch Atelier, Amsterdam; and Goodman Gallery, Johannesburg.
.
Open Sessions is a two year artist program of interdisciplinary events and exhibitions focused on drawing, organized by Rosario Güiraldes and Lisa Sigal.
