Bisa Butler: Portraits
Description:
Visit the amazing portraits by Bisa Butler. Bisa Butler: Portraits is the first solo museum exhibition of the artist’s work and features approximately 25 of her vivid and larger-than-life quilts that capture African American identity and culture. A fully illustrated catalogue accompanies the show. Butler, a formally trained African American artist of Ghanaian heritage, broaches the dividing line between creating with paints on canvas and creating with fiber by fashioning magnificent quilts and elevating a medium hitherto designated as craft into one that is clearly high art.
