10/25/2015

This Friday, October 30th, the Baroque Power Group presents REPOSE. A multimedia exhibition featuring the work by Trevor Amery, Mary Jones, Charlie Schneider and Virginia Wagner. Full details in Press Release below!

AiOP 2015: RECALL Thinker in Residence: Quinn Dukes
October 24, 2015 – 7:21 pm14th Street has been a part of my daily routine for over 7 years. Every weekday morning I elbow my way onto the L train and ascend into Manhattan at 14th Street and Third Avenue. Given my familiarity with the location for Art in Odd Places: Recall, I decided to approach the Festival with minimal reference. I was curious, how were uninformed New Yorkers seeing, witnessing and experiencing Art in Odd Places?...

June 22-23 Performance at chashama 461

6/23/2015

A tribute to Cynthia Hurd, Clementa Pinckney, Ethel Lee Lance, Depayne Middleton Doctor, Sharonda Coleman-Singleton, Daniel L Simmons Sr., Myra Thompson, Susie Jackson and Tywanza Sanders.

To their loved ones, friends and community. I am deeply saddened by the tragedy in Charleston. The vastness of racism throughout the south, the United States and our shared world is deplorable.

Over two days (June 22-23), I shared in grief and meditation with the surrounding Harlem community at chashama 461 Gallery. Thank you to those who participated and advocate for compassion.

Baroque Power Group IndieGogo Campaign UPDATE

5/30/2015

The Baroque Power Group is raising money to offset the cost of renting premier gallery space in NYC's Lower East Side for our Graduate Thesis exhibitions in July 2015. We want the broadest, most plugged-in audience to see our work when we present it this summer, and we're calling on the support of our community to help us pay for space to show in Manhattan.

The Baroque Power Group consists of Hovey Brock, JD Raenbeau, Alexandra Hammond and of course, me! Our work deals with issues of identity, ritual, utopia and the body.

We are so fortunate to have made our $5000 goal within one week of our campaign being live!!! Now we work toward an $11,000 REACH GOAL. Truth be told, $11K is the total cost for our month long space rental. Please continue spreading the word for this campaign and if you are able, please donate.

With tremendous gratitude,
Quinn
