Gary Nader Art Centre

Two of the twentieth century's most important painters, Wifredo Lam and Jean-Michel Basquiat, share a room with a selection of Songye kifwebe masks, nkisi figures and prestige objects from Central Africa at Gary Nader Art Centre in Wynwood. The show makes a pointed argument: that both artists weren't borrowing from African visual traditions so much as thinking from within them, as painters of the African diaspora working at the same intersection of the visible and the invisible that Songye sculpture has long occupied. Expect about 35 paintings and works on paper between the two, alongside objects drawn from a distinguished European collection.
