His is a mixture of kindness and strength, wisdom and resilience, youthful creativity and playfulness, frustration and rage.Provocative art can be the sword and salve, to help purge and heal the festering wound of racial polarization and inequity. City Lights worked with Claude and two other artists of color, including Iyaba Ibo Mandingo and Gerald Moore, to produce a secondary exhibit designed to contextualize Claude's art.This second exhibit includes their art and samples of Black Americana. Much of the curatorial decision making was delegated to the featured artist Claude Desir Jr.Additional essays and video recordings of conversations with the artists will be uploaded to www.citylightsgallery.org in February 2021.
