Galerie Lelong & Co., New York was pleased to present a conversation held on occasion of Tariku Shiferaw's solo exhibition "Marking Oneself in Dark Places," on view in the gallery from September 7 to October 21, 2023.
Join the artist in conversation with Larry Ossei-Mensah, curator and cultural critic, as they discuss Shiferaw's practice and the works on view, including new paintings and an installation. The exhibition presents works from two of the artist’s ongoing series, "One of These Black Boys" and "Mata Semay," in which Shiferaw engages his practice of cultural space-making through a confrontation of exclusionary Eurocentric systems of epistemic erasure. Shiferaw’s latest series, "Mata Semay," Amharic for “night skies,” proposes a new mythology that imagines how the night sky would exist if diasporic cultural contributions were considered in the global consciousness.
