The Miami-based gallery Spinello Projects is the latest to show support for the Black Lives Matter movement. This time around, the gallery has unveiled its “TIME-SENSITIVE” virtual exhibition and fundraiser. Originally launched at the beginning of Pride Month, the exhibit showcases a diverse group of 27 artists who identify as LGBTQ+, a minority, or an ally.
One hundred percent of the commission from the sale of the exhibited works will go to organizations like the Dream Defenders, G.L.I.T.S., and Scope of Work (SOW). The exhibition includes everything from prints and paintings to installations. The pieces address issues that have been persistent throughout history. Standouts of the exhibit include Reginald O’Neal’s My Little Brother(s) Casket (2018), Eddie Arroyo’s May 29th, 2020 (2020), and many more.
Others include Morel Doucet’s silkscreened Melaninted (Kin of Joseph, brother of Malcolm) (2019). The “TIME SENSITIVE” exhibition focuses on themes such as police brutality, inequality, and social injustice. Participating artists include Arroyo and Agustina Woodgate, Nash Glynn, Kris Knight, and multimedia Iranian artist Raheleh Filsoofi.
The virtual tour will run until June 28th on Spinello Projects’ Instagram account. Find out more now and keep it locked with The Culture Curators for more from the art department coming very soon!
