NEWS

2019.10.10

26 days (that's what we've had so far). 26 days of sun and blue skies. Two people who first made contact in Atlanta, crossed paths in London, and now BK. For the first @delany.project, we decide to explore Samuel R. Delany's words on contact, and how stories of contact happen in places in transition. The place being Crown Heights. This dossier is a shared love and respect for the work of Delany, the people and places invested, and each other.

ABOUT

David Widart is a Belgian artist whose work exists within the realms of the autobiographical and hyper-realistic. Winner with his book La Roue Voilée (L'Amicale, 2013) of the Fernand Baudin Prize and with exhibitions at FoMu - Fotomuseum Antwerpen, Bozar (Brussels) and Nederlands Fotomuseum in Rotterdam to his name, his images reveal a striking contrast between the hard-nosed and the soft - touched, and a predilection for a beauty enveloping the raw and the rough. They reveal juxtapositions of class, race and subversive, being in his home country or abroad - giving a candid yet insightful lens into the social milieu of a given place and time.
