Faith Ringgold’s inaugural exhibition at Jack Shainman Gallery traces the visionary artist’s lifelong fusion of art, activism, and storytelling. Spanning early paintings, tankas, soft sculptures, and story quilts, it highlights her use of textiles as a vehicle for history, identity, and liberation. Drawing from Harlem’s political awakening, ancestral craft, and global traditions, Ringgold redefined painting through fabric—transforming personal memory into a collective narrative of resilience and justice.
