A relaxing Autumn morning, a walk with family, and time spent at home…

Through his paintings, Ben Ferry “grabs at things before they are gone.” These fleeting moments of tranquility are captured in works, including Magical, on view in our current exhibition.

Congratulations to the inspiring Beverly Price for her lecture last night hosted by the Corcoran School for Art & Design at George Washington University!

In this selected work, part of her Royal Blue series, she captures the lives of young Black teenagers affected by gun violence and systemic injustice in D.C. communities. Her most recent exhibition, ‘A Language We Share’, which featured an ‘intergenerational dialogue’ between Price and artist Gordon Parks, was staged at the Center for Art and Advocacy in New York earlier this year.
