Sanford Biggers: Codeswitch at the Bronx Art Museum

(NEW YORK, NY — June 25, 2020) — The Bronx Museum of the Arts is pleased to announce Sanford Biggers: Codeswitch, the first survey of quilt-based works by the award-winning, New York-based interdisciplinary artist. The solo show, which will be on view from September 9, 2020 – January 24, 2021, features over 60 quilt-based works by the artist that seamlessly weave American history into a broader context of global traditions and styles.

For over two decades, Biggers has been developing a singular body of work that is deeply informed by African American history and traditions, and sustains a rich dialog with contemporary art on a national and international level, referencing urban culture, the body, sacred geometry, and American symbolism.
