PA JA MA

Posted on 2018-07-09

Keith de Lellis Gallery is pleased to exhibit the photographs of collaborators Paul Cadmus (American, 1904-1999), Jared French (American, 1905-1988), and Margaret French (American, 1889-1973) for the summer season. As coined by Cadmus, the trio is collectively known as “PAJAMA,” the first two letters of each member’s name.

The three painters began making photographs together in 1937, photographing friends, family, and, primarily, each other over the course of the next two decades. Fellow creatives like George Platt Lynes, George Tooker, Glenway Wescott, and Jensen Yow are often pictured. The dreamlike images featured in this exhibition were made on summertime beaches of places like Provincetown, MA and Fire Island, NY. These small prints were collected privately by the artists and distributed among friends, only valued for their artistic merit years after their creation.

Exhibition runs through to August 10th, 2018

OBEY X WARRIOR COLLECTION

Posted on 2018-07-09

Founded in the 1930’s, Warrior Shanghai became a working-class staple during the time the Obey Giant campaign hit the streets. The two brands, iconic in the their own right, now combine their signature aesthetics in a collection paying homage to vintage athletic and work wear apparel while tying in fresh seasonal colorways.

The OBEY x Warrior Fall’18 collection includes a new teal and a gold colorway of the classic WB-01 shoe, a red satin bomber jacket, three tees and a pair of socks. All with the iconic OBEY/Warrior branding. This collaboration will be a Europe exclusive.

RORY DOYLE – DELTA HILL RIDERS

Posted on 2018-07-09

Delta Hill Riders shares the story of African-American cowboy culture in the rural Mississippi Delta. Doyle’s ongoing personal project challenges the Hollywood portrayal of the American cowboy. The work highlights the black cowboys and cowgirls in the Delta as a proud group existing beyond the movie image of the American West.

The project began in early 2017 when Doyle attended a rodeo celebrating black cowboy heritage in the region. Over the past year, he’s documented this band of horse riders in a place not typically known for its cowboys.

A recent article from Smithsonian estimated that one in four cowboys were African-American following the Civil War — yet this population was drastically underrepresented in popular accounts. Delta Hill Riders sheds light on a prominent sub-culture historically overlooked, even in the Mississippi Delta.
