In a beautiful 19th Century brownstone in Brooklyn’s Bedford-Stuyvesant neighbourhood sits Ivy N. Jones’s Welancora Gallery — a designated space for guest curators to organise exhibitions of artists from around the world. Her current show, curated with New York City-based artist Damien Davis, features photographs, ephemera and a performance by Elliott Jerome Brown Jr., Zalika Azim, Colette Veasey-Cullors, Melvin Harper, Daonne Huff, Anders Jones and Deborah Willis, that aims to unpack the assumptions and expectations about spaces inhabited by the Black body.
