Jeffrey Gibson: This Is the Day

The Wellin Museum of Art at Hamilton College presents Jeffrey Gibson: This Is The Day.  The exhibition features over 50 works of sculpture, painting, installation, and video made between 2014 and 2018, a number of which were made expressly for this exhibition. As part of the exhibition, the Wellin will debut a new film that the Museum commissioned from Gibson. Other new works in the exhibition include a group of five elaborately adorned helmets that will be presented to the public for the first time at the Wellin, alongside a series of large-scale sculptural garments, draped on tipi poles which will hang from the gallery ceiling. The exhibition is curated by Tracy L. Adler, Johnson – Pote Director of the Wellin Museum of Art, and will travel to the Blanton Museum of Art at the University of Texas at Austin in 2019, facilitated by Veronica Roberts, the Blanton’s Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art.
