In a sponsored article, Jerome “Rome J.” Johnson of The Triibe highlights two solo exhibitions presented as part of Art Design Chicago that feature the work of two of the city’s prominent Black artists: The United Colors of Robert Earl Paige and A Love Supreme: Norman Teague.
“Paige has lived through the civil rights era, a lot of his work representing Black pride and inequity, while emphasizing beauty in Black culture. Those looking to visit the exhibit can expect to see an array of abstract paintings and designs, rooted in African aesthetics, as well as messages mimicking principles from the civil rights era, some that are still relevant today.” — The Triibe
The United Colors of Robert Earl Paige is open through October 27, 2024 at the Hyde Park Art Center.
A Love Supreme ran January 20, 2024 – April 28, 2024 at the Elmhurst Art Museum.
