“Name It by Trying to Name It: Open Sessions 2014-15”, which includes all artists in the program, is an exploration of drawing, performance, video, sculpture, and installation. The exhibit presents a window into nearly two years of thinking about drawing. On view through August 30. Heather Hart, one of the Open Sessions artists, transforms her signature sculptures and socially engaged practice to the page. Employing a range of printmaking processes, she explores the drawing medium with a synergy of materials. She investigates the notion of the “numinous negro,” a term conceived by Richard Brookhiser in a 2001 issue of National Review to describe a modern day “magical negro” character, the black character in a story that exists primarily to guide the white protagonist on his journey. #OpenSessions #HeatherHart heat_her_hart Image: Heather Hart, Numinous Negro v.
