Sikkema Jenkins & Co is pleased to present Electric, an exhibition of new works by Jennie C. Jones. Jennie C. Jones works at the intersection of art history and black history. She layers the formal language of modern art—abstraction, minimalism—over the conceptual and technical strategies of avant-garde jazz. Jones’ work in audio, sculpture and drawing extends the parallel legacies of experimentation, wit and riff of these radical cultural forms. The new work brought together in Electric continues the artist’s exploration of cultural confluence, hybridization, and a more complicated and historically inclusive form of modernism.
