  • A Bronx Retrospective of Local Artist Darrel Ellis

    The work and life of artist Darrel Ellis was unfinished. Ellis died of AIDS related complications in 1992 at the age of 33. He grew up in the South Bronx, and spent his childhood without knowing his father. Ellis later became a key figure in the 80s downtown art scene, and was heavily inspired by his discovery of a series of his father's photographs. However, for many years after his death, his work went unstudied. A new exhibition at the Bronx Museum of the Arts, in partnership with The Baltimore Museum of Art, is one of the first major examinations of Ellis' life and work. Curators Leslie Cozzi and Sergio Bessa join us to commemorate Darrel Ellis. Darrel Ellis: Regeneration is on view until September 10.
