Mashonda Tifrere Debuts “Art Genesis: 100 Days of Summer” Exhibition
Los Angeles/New York-based independent curator and Founder of Art LeadHer, Mashonda Tifrere brought out LA this week for the private opening of her summer exhibition “Art Genesis: 100 Days of Summer.” And Hype Off Life was definitely in the building, where the vibes flowed fluently over stunning art pieces surrounded by beautiful souls.
Her third annual summer exhibition, “Art Genesis: 100 Days of Summer” follows Mashonda’s wildly successful “Note to Self” Women’s History Month exhibition at Christie’s London. A story about love, growth, and mystery, the exhibition showcases thought-provoking pieces from eight standout, early, and mid-career artists: Arielle Austin, Akilah Watts, Jewel Ham, Lanise Howard, Tawny Chatmon, Victor Ubah, Natalie Lauren, and Ronnie Robinson.
In addition to highlighting dope artists, the summer curation will also include “Art Genesis: Essentials on Navigating the Art World,” an intimate panel discussion on Saturday, August 5th, where Mashonda will moderate a panel discussion with featured artist Lanise Howard, collector Joy Simmons, and Jac Forbes Gallery owner Jacqueline J. Forbes.
While expressing her inspiration for the exhibition Mashonda stated, “When I think about some of my favorite memories, summer always comes to mind,” she says. “The way it makes me feel and my desire for it to last longer. This exhibition is an exploration of joy, love and fantasies coming true.”
