Modus Operandi
Sun Nov 15
Former school, bold contemporary art
Chelsea, New York
"black ice" — deceptive clarity, hidden depth
"Show of the Day" (GalleriesNow)
Lynette Yiadom-Boakye's figures lounge in pigeon's blood robes and dancer's arches, each canvas haunted by hovering birds and stories that refuse to explain themselves. These are not portraits but riddles dressed in radical dignity, too sovereign to simplify.
