Radcliffe Bailey at the CAC
This exhibition will include the eighth iteration of Windward Coast, artist Radcliffe Bailey’s magnum opus that grew out of his earlier experimentation, Storm at Sea. Both Windward Coast and Storm at Sea are site specific, large-scale installations, made of piano keys—including the long sounding devices that stretch into the body of the instrument—strewn across the floor to look like the surface of the sea. Weaving in references to Yoruban deities, this work explores themes of African ancestry and the African-American experience. An opening reception is scheduled for March 6 at 7 pm, and the show stays up through June 7. 900 Camp Street. (504) 528-3805 or cacno.org for details, admission, and hours.
