Come hear about Faith Ringgold and the exhibition being featured at the Guggenheim. Explore Woman on a Bridge #1 of 5: Tar Beach (1988), one of the most important works by Ringgold, a renowned artist, writer, and activist. This monumental quilt, the first in a series of five, tells the story of a young girl who dreams of flying from her Harlem rooftop to celebrate her own freedom and self-possession.
This exhibition dives into Ringgold’s artistic influences and the lasting impact she has had on later generations of artists. Alongside Tar Beach, visitors will see works from the Guggenheim New York collection by European modernists such as Marc Chagall and Pablo Picasso, who inspired Ringgold, and contemporary American artists such as Tschabalala Self and Sanford Biggers, whose work reflects her legacy.  Presented by Mary Vahey. Hosted by Kemmerer Library
