My latest article for Artlyst is about André Daughtry’s Weight, a video work from 2014 that attempts ‘to visualise societal projections on the black male body’.
'Daughtry explains: ‘The piece was made in order to show the projections of race as an actual weight on the experience of Black men in achieving acceptable standards of living.' ...
Daughtry is currently the Minister of the Arts at Judson Church and continues to make work as an artist and facilitate conversations around contemporary art and spiritual traditions ...
From the mid-1950s onwards Judson has been a church with three inter-related missions; the political, the social and the artistic. Daughtry has explained how the Rev. Howard Moody encouraged his Associate Minister, Rev. Bud Scott, to establish the Judson Gallery with the artist Claes Oldenburg as co-director in 1958 in the basement of the building that was known as Judson House, an adjacent building that the church-owned and used for student and staff housing. Judson Gallery was where artists like Oldenburg, Jim Dine, Marc Ratliff, Allan Kaprow, Tom Wesselmann and others would have some of their first shows in New York.'
