A conversation with Darby English and Ayanah Moor, discussing Ayanah’s recent body of work, consisting of paintings.
Ayanah Moor is a Chicago-based conceptual artist whose work explores blackness, gender, desire and language. She utilizes existing material and cultural artifacts in her paintings, prints, drawings and performance to generate alternative histories, often repositioning the subject as a corrective gesture or to create counter narratives.
Darby English is the Carl Darling Buck Professor of Art History at University of Chicago, and associate faculty in both the University’s Department of Visual Arts and its Center for the Study of Race, Politics, and Culture. From 2014 to 2020, English was Adjunct Curator in the Department of Painting and Sculpture at the Museum of Modern Art, New York. His scholarship focuses on ways that fine art and popular culture produced since 1964 have prepared us to welcome—or reject—the passing of difference as we have known it.
