Opening Reception: Dindga McCannon

​Fridman Gallery is honored to present Dindga McCannon's second solo exhibition opening in September. The exhibition titled Yesterday and Today brings together a range of works spanning the 1970s to present and highlights her multidisciplinary practice featuring mixed media quilts, paintings, and sculpture.

​Born in New York City and raised in Harlem and the Bronx, Dindga came of age as an artist and young mother during the rise of feminist art in New York City and the civil rights movement across the nation. Dindga began her career studying under Harlem Renaissance artists such as Jacob Lawrence, Charles Alston, Richard Mayhew, and Al Loving at the Art Students League of New York and the Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop.
