BIPOC is The Theme!
National Juried Exhibition
Juror Tyanna J. Buie
April 8 - May 14, 2022
True inclusion starts with acknowledgment. BIPOC Is the Theme! addresses inclusivity through the many artists and art works selected for this exhibition.
The work in this exhibition represents a wide - range of processes and techniques that include mixed-media, drawing, painting, printmaking, digital works, abstraction, portraiture, video/documentary art, and sculpture, with varied concepts such as personal narrative, social constructs, identity, and political themes. All of which speaks to the diverse processes and ways of making that exemplifies celebration, the appreciation of self, and audacity. The audacity of these artists to explore their inner thoughts through visual means, while existing in a society that perpetually mis-handles the unique voice and perspective of BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) individuals. The artists in this exhibition continue to find ways to make their voices known regardless of stereotypes and stigmas, along with the hidden barriers/burdens placed upon their shoulders, all for the sake of visual expression.

BIPOC is trendy right now. However Black, Indigenous, People of Color (BIPOC) artists have traditionally been underrepresented in U.S. galleries and museums. How do we make this moment in time more than a moment? Singular Black History Month exhibitions do not make up for the decades of systemic racism and omission from our arts institutes. Buckham Gallery acknowledges the need to build stronger relationships with BIPOC artists and our community. “BIPOC is The Theme,” with juror Tyanna J. Buie, is a launch pad to build new collaborations with BIPOC artists. In addition to the traditional cash prizes, Buckham Gallery will select artists to be featured in the 2023 - 2024 season.
BIPOC Is The Theme! artists selected for feature exhibitions and honorariums:
In addition to the traditional cash prizes, Buckham’s Exhibition Committee selected three artists to be featured in the 2023 - 2024 season, thus building new relationships and opportunities with artists. These future feature exhibitions include honorariums ($500 each) to aid with the financial challenges of transporting artwork.
Congratulations to the selected Artists!
