Marlon Forrester
Blackmoon Rising
September 1 - October 17, 2021
Abigail Ogilvy Gallery is proud to present our inaugural solo exhibition of artwork by Marlon Forrester. Blackmoon Rising is a retrospective of his body of work created over the past five years. Forrester is an artist, educator, and athlete working in Boston, MA. Primary to his practice is an exploration of concepts related to the black male body and basketball through performance, painting, drawing, sculpture, large scale installations, and video. Transformation and ritual are the foundational elements.
