The Black Iconic


Come see the new solo exhibition “The Black Iconic” from Newark-based artist Ricardo Osmondo Francis. The exhibition features a wide array of Francis’ luminous paintings and is a brooding elegiac vision of the Black visage delineated in both grand decadence and technically through densely evocative images that are steeped in multicultural symbolism. Francis’ work is inspired by the complexity of African American identity, mythology, and painting itself, and examines how Black people are perceived both socially and politically on the world stage through a spiritual gaze. The exhibition runs through March 31, 2023 and is curated by Haifa Bint-Kadi.
