Installation view, Ranti Bam, Hard/Soft: Textiles and Ceramics in Contemporary Art, Museum of Applied Arts, Vienna, December 13, 2023 – May 20, 2024.
James Cohan is pleased to present Anima, an exhibition of new works by ceramicist Ranti Bam, on view from May 17 through July 26, 2024, at the gallery's 291 Grand Street location. This marks the artist’s New York debut and first solo exhibition with James Cohan. The gallery will host an opening reception with the artist on Friday, May 17 from 5-7 PM at 291 Grand Street.
British-Nigerian artist Ranti Bam (b.1982, Lagos, Nigeria) creates vessels made of clay whose gestures evoke vulnerability. By blending elements of abstraction and figuration, light and darkness, and spirit and form, Bam elicits a dialogue between the literal and the metaphorical.
An artist led walkthrough will take place on Saturday, May 18 at 2 PM. RSVP is not required.
