๐๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ค๐ข๐ด๐ต ๐๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฎ: ๐๐ณ๐ต ๐ช๐ฏ ๐ต๐ฉ๐ฆ ๐๐ข๐ณ๐ช๐ฃ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ข๐ฏ ๐๐ช๐ข๐ด๐ฑ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ข, 1990๐ดโ๐๐ฐ๐ฅ๐ข๐บ is the first major group exhibition in the U.S. to envision a new approach to contemporary art in the Caribbean diaspora, foregrounding forms that reveal new modes of thinking about identity and place. The process and subject of ๐๐ฐ๐ด๐ฒ๐ถ๐ฆ๐ด ๐ฐ๐ง ๐๐ถ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ต๐ฐ ๐๐ช๐ค๐ฐ (2022) highlights the ongoing yet underrecognized migrations of people, ideas, and forms between the Arab world and the Caribbean. The buildings depicted here were first photographed by Alia Farid in various towns of Puerto Rico, after which the images were shared with weavers in Mashhad, Iran. The weavers in turn translated the images into a unique kilim, or traditional prayer rug. Without detailed instructions from Farid, the weavers interpreted these images into a tapestry while adding in their own "signatures," like the intricate border made of ornamental pomegranates. New extended hours: We are open Thursday to Saturday from 11AM โ 7PM and Sunday from 11AM โ 5PM.

Merging two iconic artworks, The Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh and the Titanic leaving port, would be quite the sight. While The Starry Night is a swirling post-impressionist landscape depicting a vibrant night sky over a quaint village, the #Titanic leaving port is a #historical #photograph capturing a momentous event. Here's how you could #imagine this interesting combination: Imagine the swirling stars and moon of The #StarryNight transposed onto the night sky above the port where the Titanic is docked. The #ship's smokestacks could be puffing out smoke that blends with the swirling brushstrokes of the sky. The dark hull of the ship would contrast with the bright lights of the city in the background, creating a scene of both #beauty and #mystery. It would be an interesting #fusion of realism and impressionism, capturing the grandeur of the Titanic's departure against the dreamlike backdrop of #VanGogh's #masterpiece. Since The Starry Night is a nighttime scene, it would be more fitting to depict the Titanic at night, leaving the port illuminated by the city lights. This would create a more cohesive and visually striking image. #aiart #digitalart #design #creativity
