Hauser & Wirth Southampton presents a focused exhibition of twelve new watercolors by Charles Gaines. Inspired by cottonwood trees he photographed on a 2022 trip to Arizona, ‘Numbers and Trees: The Arizona Watercolors’ provides an intimate encounter with the systems and processes through which the celebrated conceptual artist develops his constantly evolving ‘Numbers and Trees’ series. The trees Gaines photographed during this trip will form the basis of a new series of Plexiglas works that the artist will debut in his forthcoming solo exhibition at the Phoenix Art Museum.

A new survey of acclaimed artist Charles Gaines opens at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Miami (ICA Miami) this November, tracing the evolution of the second half of his influential practice. The exhibition brings together for the first time 60 works from 1992 to the present day, including two monumental works, one of which the artist is recreating for the first time in nearly two decades. Recognized as a pioneer of conceptual art, Gaines has been at the forefront of introducing language and systems into artistic production for decades. He is widely known for his use of translating mechanisms to convert images and documents into numerical structures, musical notation, and other sign systems. The ICA Miami exhibition highlights a pivotal shift in Gaines’s practice during the second half of his career, in which his work takes on even greater political and social dimension, incorporating materials abundant with preexisting cultural meaning. Among these are the Black Panthers’ manifesto as well as texts by Franz Kafka and Frantz Fanon, which have been channeled by the artist into complex formal and conceptual works. This radical approach has allowed Gaines to address the issues of race and identity politics in innovative ways that extend beyond representation. Simultaneously, Gaines began to combine different media, including video and sound, into his works.

Granville Carroll will lead AZPA members through his curated exhibition and discuss all the amazing work presented. Reclaiming Hope: Afrofuturist Visions explores Black healing, remembrance and future building through visual art. Exhibition themes center around Afrofuturist concepts related to the imagination, dreaming, hope, beauty, technology and science-fiction.

Some artists focus on transforming past traumas to forge new futures, while others take an imaginative approach, envisioning new worlds and divine aspects of Blackness. Creating and responding to personal experiences and collective histories, these artists dare to dream of a world shaped by Black voices and healing. ------- All Images: © Granville Carroll About the Artist Granville Carroll, , a contemporary visual artist residing in Phoenix, Arizona, delves into the realms of photography and poetry to explore the intricate facets of representation and identity. Through his creative pursuits, Carroll seeks to unravel the multifaceted dimensions of blackness, encompassing spatial blackness, temporal blackness, and spiritual blackness. At the heart of his artistic journey lies an exploration of metaphysics, particularly examining the ontology of self and the cosmos. Carroll's practice shines a spotlight on the boundless imaginative capacities of the human mind, masterfully weaving narratives and constructing alternate speculative futures and states of existence. Carroll currently teaches at Arizona State University. He has been awarded a 2023 project support grant from the Center for Photographic Art, 2022 Top 50 Critical Mass, 2022 NYSCA/NYFA Fellowship in Photography and 2022 JGS Fellowship for Photography. He was named a 2021 Silver List artist and Project Space Visual Studies Workshop AIR.

His work has been shown across the United States and internationally. His work has been published through online platforms and printed media such as: Panorama Journal, KJZZ radio in Arizona, Fraction Magazine, What Will You Remember, Brink Literary Journal, Lenscratch, Humble Arts Foundation, Black Is Magazine and many others. Carroll’s images have recently appeared in Light and Lens: Thinking About Photography in the Digital Age (Robert Hirsch and Edward Bateman) and There’s Light: Artworks & Conversations Examining Black Masculinity, Identity & Mental Well-Being (Glenn Lutz). In 2022 his first artist book, Dark Matter was published through Visual Studies Workshop Press. ________________________________ IMPORTANT INFORMATION: By registering for this event, you agree to hold harmless Arizona Photography Alliance (AZPA), its board, officers and members, and the event hosts, from any occurrence that might happen during the event.
