Rush Arts Gallery ‘Neekid Black Girls’ Exhibit
BEAUTIFUL!!! Neekid Black Girls is on view through January 27th, 2012. Rush Arts Gallery in the Chelsea neighborhood of NYC is another arm of the Simmons brothers’ (Russell, Run and Danny) cultural legacy. The gallery’s current exhibit, Neekid Black Girls, curated by Danny Simmons offers a quiet rebuttal to pop culture’s limited take on the black female figure. Offering up a selection of photo-based work that highlights the perfection of imperfections, artistic nuance and straightforward nude portraiture, the exhibition is a refreshing counterpoint to those janky booty magazines on newsstands across the city!
