Nwa Agbo: Entering Adolescence
to
Jonathan Ferrara Gallery 400A Julia Street, New Orleans, Louisiana 70130
In REWA's first solo exhibition at Jonathan Ferrara Gallery, the Nigerian artist depicts the women of the Onitsha people of Igboland. A 2018 NO DEAD ARTIST finalist, REWA celebrates the authority and power of these women during adolescence and works to overturn the misogynistic placement of woman in the patriarchal Igbo culture through her work.
The exhibit will be on display from April 17–May 23, with an opening reception on May 4 from 5 pm–9 pm, coinciding with the Arts District of New Orleans block party event Jammin' on Julia. jonathanferraragallery.com.
