Good Luck Charm

Derrick ADAMS | Untitled | Ceramic, 2023 — available on Composition Gallery

Plate signed. // On a circular ceramic plate, a faceted portrait of a Black man caught mid-song lifts his face beneath a confetti hat and bunting of colour. Adams composes the head in planes of warm chocolate, ochre and beige; the patterned shirt mixes Kente cloth and polka dot — Black tailoring as joy. Plate signed by the artist. Adams is among the most celebrated American voices working on Black leisure, identity and celebration today, and this multiple distils his exuberant pictorial vocabulary into a fully usable object to acquire and live with.

What is Performance Art?

Performance Art is a genre of fine art that is traditionally interdisciplinary, involving various art forms. It can be scripted or unscripted, random or carefully orchestrated, spontaneous, or meticulously planned, with or without audience participation. Performance Art can be presented live or through media, with the artist either present or absent. It typically involves four basic elements: space, the performer’s body or presence through a medium, time, and the relationship between performer and audience. The artwork consists of actions performed by an individual or group in a specific time and space.
