EXHIBITION OPENING
Wilhelmina Godfrey: I am what I am
Nov 8, 2024 – Mar 31, 2025
Born in 1914 in Philadelphia and raised in Buffalo, Wilhelmina Godfrey was an artist of exceptional skill and vision, working in media that included painting, printmaking, and textiles. Over the course of her more than fifty-year career, her work continuously evolved. Her lifelong contributions as an artist, writer, and educator earned the admiration and respect of many, cementing her legacy within the local arts and African American communities.
Wilhelmina Godfrey: I am what I am is a retrospective look at the artist’s massive portfolio, particularly her extraordinary use of color and theme, as well as the evolution of her work from representative figuration to abstraction...
Major support for Wilhelmina Godfrey: I am what I am is provided by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts.
