The exhibition, for example, highlights Ringgold’s works in printmaking on both paper and fabric,” Saggese told. “Both artists are rooted in an experimental and interdisciplinary approach to materials. Their approaches to artmaking have been shared for more than a half-century, too. Both are Black women, in their 90s, icons as well as “mothers, teachers, part-time and full-time workers, feminists, Black civil rights activists and keepers of family histories,” as described by a website the students created to support and expand the reach of the presentation. Exhibiting Ringgold and Saar side-by-side makes sense. ![]()
