New York Times critic Holland Cotter was more emphatic about ‘Flow,’ a group show of artwork by a loosely defined group of artists under the age of 40 who were either born in Africa or whose parents emigrated from there (with few exceptions, most of the artists live in Europe or North America), on show at the Studio Museum. See Cotter’s review here). Cotter identified the group of artists by the fashionable appellation ‘Afropolitans’ (some of the artists include Mustafa Maluka, Lolo Veleko, Michèle Magema, Latifa Echakhch, and Trokon Nagbe among others). In a separate review, that I just came across, Alan Gilbert, a Village Voice art critic, is less sure about the show’s coherence, whether for the art, artists, curators or critics. See Gilbert’s review here. Flow ends June 29.
