Clarence James’ exhibition, Color and Grit, is a powerful reclamation of the Black cowboy's spirit, challenging historical myths and bringing the narratives into contemporary art.
His art blurs the lines between abstraction and representation, allowing figures to dissolve into the canvas, captured in a moment of transformation and fluidity.
Drawing inspiration from Jean-Michel Basquiat, James uses vibrant colors and raw materials to express the complexities of identity and the human experience.
The upcoming exhibition is set to unveil on September 26 at DTR Modern Gallery in SoHo, highlighting the often overlooked contributions of Black cowboys to American culture.
