Opening of “Liberation Among the Stars: A Past and Future Dream” by Tesh Silver at Co-Prosperity
On view May 29 to June 26 in the windows of Co-Prosperity
Stars. Ancestors no longer earthbound, suspended in infinite space. We long to be among them, finding a home that’s truly ours, where freedom is not a foreign word or long-sought goal, but finally made real. For as many times this world has turned against us, a new world awaits to embrace us in its abundance and let us call her home. Here we build anew. Here we heal. Here we will find joy!
With illustrations that look both forward and to the past, Tesh Silver envisions a new world that is not only fun, colorful and exciting, but makes space to explore what Black liberation could look like in a hopefully not-so-distant future. Hop on the Mothership and see what’s possible!
Join us for the opening Saturday, May 29, 7 PM at Co-Prosperity! The exhibition will close on Saturday, June 26 at 2 PM with a print sale near the installation.
Additionally, Tesh will be joined by coriama for an artist talk on June 18th, Live Streamed via Lumpen TV. Stay tuned for further details!
This show is a part of Co-Prosperity Peers, a series of solo exhibitions initiated by the Co-Prosperity Programming Council. Six artists are selected each year to take over the Co-Prosperity windows and hold programming during the run of their show. This project is supported by the Andy Warhol Foundation
