☆ Quil Lemons Wants to Be the Robert Mapplethorpe of His Community
  + stars: | 2023-09-08 | by ( Ruth La Ferla | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
Growing up in South Philadelphia, Quil Lemons first trained his lens on family and friends, his photographs of cousins and neighbors snaring the art world’s attention. By the time he was 20, he was focusing on young Black men as the subjects of “Glitterboy,” a series that highlighted, as its title suggests, adolescents slathered in glitter and colorful grease. Lately, Mr. Lemons has expanded his range. “Quiladelphia,” his new group of highly provocative, radically intimate photographs, on view through Nov. 4 at the Hannah Traore Gallery on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, is billed as an exploration of Black manhood. Speaking by phone from his apartment in Brooklyn, Mr. Lemons, 26, said that his portraits, paradoxically raw and refined, were meant to dissolve calcified notions of Black masculinity, family, queerness, race and beauty.

☆ Lupita Nyong’o wears custom silver breastplate to 2023 Tony Awards
  + stars: | 2023-06-12 | by ( Leah Dolan | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +3 min
CNN —Attending the 2023 Tony Awards in New York Sunday night, Lupita Nyong’o arrived in timeless formalwear: a sharp black velvet dinner jacket and flared trousers. Nyong’o was wearing a custom breastplate cast and molded on her body by Misha Japanwala, a Pakistani artist and designer whose subversive sculptures are already increasingly attracting an impressive celebrity clientele. (An exhibition of Japanwala’s work is also currently on display at the Hannah Traore art gallery in New York.) Misha Japanwala's work "asks viewers to see the body exactly as it is," the artist writes on her website. Japanwala’s work, however, presents a very different picture.

☆ A Pakistani Artist Reimagines Her Relationship With Shame and Bodies
  + stars: | 2023-05-03 | by ( Aamina Inayat Khan | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Misha Japanwala looked around her studio in the week leading up to her gallery show and wondered whether there were “too many nipples.”She was talking, of course, about the nipples she plaster cast from the bodies of 70 anonymized Pakistani people. They are part of Ms. Japanwala’s new collection, “Beghairati Ki Nishaani: Traces of Shamelessness,” showing at Hannah Traore Gallery in Manhattan from May 4 through July 30. Ms. Japanwala, a visual artist, who lives in Jersey City, N.J., spent several months last year in Karachi, Pakistan, where she grew up, making body castings of local women and L.G.B.T.Q. Her work aims to be a historical record of a population governed by the laws of shame. Attending an Aurat (Women’s) March, a rally for women’s rights, has led to threats of murder and rape.
