Lively, colorful, and modern in their geometry, the quilts in Nicelle Beauchene Gallery’s group show of textiles from Gee’s Bend quilters are a standout in the Tribeca galleries. ‘My Way: Gee’s Bend Today’ is the third in a three-part series at the gallery featuring work by the legendary makers of Gee’s Bend, a Black community in Boykin, Alabama. The present exhibition showcases work by 14 artists creating ‘My Way’ quilts, pieces that favor free expression over strict adherence to a pattern. (On view through Jan 4th. Note that gallery hours change during the holiday period).
