In recognition of Black History Month Sankaranka Gallery mounts the moving Exhibition "SHADOW MATTER-The Rhythm Of Structure"
SHADOW MATTER -the Rhythm of Structure celebrates the aesthetic contributions of a modern giant of African neo-classicism - Zimbabwean Shona sculptor and philosopher Nicholas Mukomberanwa (1940-2002) - as seen through the eyes of his African American apprentice, M. Scott Johnson, and his sons, Lawrence and Taguma Mukomberanwa. This exhibition features the work of these three direct stone sculptors alongside the elder Mukomberanwa's own work, bringing to light the powerful influence of Nicholas Mukomberanwa on a new generation of sculptors. This exhibition also highlights the effects of the crosspollination of ideas during Johnson's residency 1996-99 on Mukomberanwa's farm in Ruwa Zimbabwe.
The post-colonial emergence of Zimbabwean sculpture and its elder statesmen Nicholas Mukomberanwa ranks as one of the greatest narratives of the visual arts in the 20th century. In contrast to most of his Zimbabwean peers Mukomberanwa is noted for successfully appropriating & Africanizing concepts & methods from across diverse (European, Asian and Native American) cultural divides into the service of his own powerful vision & imagery. Mukomberanwa's collaboration with the spiritual life force of stone is hallmarked in masterfully realizing works that stretch the definitions of abstraction, figurative and minimalist works. The honesty from which his work evolves is a testament to the vitality of contemporary Shona culture. As cultural icon, Nicholas was a constant shining example and mentor to many young artists. Mukomberanwa's sculptures can be found in New York's Museum of Modern Art, London's Museum of Mankind and Harare's National Gallery of Zimbabwe. This is one of the first New York exhibits of Mukomberanwa's work since his death in 2002.
M. Scott Johnson, NYC artist and apprentice of Nicholas Mukomberanwa, imbues the ancient art of stone carving with a contemporary edge-defying attitude that speaks to African-American cultural vision & experience. Over the course of his three years of experience at Mukomberanwa's studio from 1996-1999, Scott was privy to the unique aesthetic and philosophical legacy of Zimbabwean sculptors. When referring to the title of the exhibition, Johnson explains that it was Nicholas who taught him that "the truth of a sculpture is located in the shadows". In describing his apprenticeship, Scott says, "Mukomberanwa helped me to develop a metaphysical correlation in my work, which enabled me to extend beyond Western techno-seduction. He showed me how to become a conduit - "rhythmic with my creative intuition". Scott's work lies between the crossroads of visual art and cultural anthropology. His sculpture can be found in permanent collections at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture and Hampton University, and have been exhibited nationally at establishments such as Transafrica Forum, the Embassy of the Republic of Ghana, Columbia and Harvard universities.
Lawrence and Taguma Mukomberanwa have incorporated their father's high aesthetic standards, including the articulation of one's own distinct vision. Each has begun to exhibit abroad, with Lawrence as resident artist at the exhibition "Master Sculptors of Zimbabwe and their Works" in Barcelona, Spain. Johnson, who co-curates SHADOW MATTER with Saihou Saidy, states: "The presence of their work in this exhibition throws into relief the possibilities of aesthetic inheritance and variation".
Sankaranka Gallery provides a forum for presenting the highest quality of contemporary African art to an international audience.

My favorite past-time was reading "Brown eye girl". Where is the author now?
