🖼️ From studio to street: The journey of adrienne__elise Tarver’s "She Who sits." 🚏🚌🚏.
On view through November 24, experience Tarver’s powerful "She who sits," transforming 300 jcdecauxna bus shelters in NYC, Chicago, and Boston into spaces of resilience and agency. Featured here in her studio, Tarver’s painting "A long way" captures a moment from the 1963 Birmingham anti-segregation protests—focusing on one woman while she sits in prayer amidst a peaceful church group of demonstrators facing police violence, redefining stillness as an act of defiance and empowerment.
As the exhibition comes to an end, join us for a FREE talk on 🗓️ November 13, 6:30 pm at 📍cooperunion, where Tarver and Public Art Fund Assistant Curator jeneedaria Strand will explore themes of Black matriarchy, resistance, and the radical power of rest. 🔗 Link in bio to learn more and register.
