Sanford Biggers:Moon Medicine is a major monographic exhibition featuring one of the most significant African American artists of this generation. Biggers’ work is renowned for its meditative rigor and improvisatory edge, which is inspired by the hybridity and mixtures of diverse cultures and by his experiences living throughout the United States, Europe and Japan, theater, history and social politics. The artist is interested in the philosophical and worship practices of Buddhism; Indo-European religious practices of Voodoo, Santeria, and Candomble in indigenous populations; and African American popular culture.
