Schemes of Visibility: The Art of Edouard Duval-Carrié

Edouard Duval-Carrié’s Schemes of Visibility delves into the intersection of art, curation, and the collector's gaze. This exhibition invites viewers to consider how collectors—through their choices and perspectives—shape the way art is seen, valued, and understood. With a focus on Duval-Carrié’s distinctive body of work, the exhibition serves as a critical exploration of how visibility, selection, and ownership contribute to the broader narratives within contemporary art.

Through this lens, Schemes of Visibility transforms the act of collecting into a form of discourse. Each piece of art is not just an aesthetic object but a vessel for layered conversations about identity, history, and cultural relevance. The exhibition will challenge audiences to reflect on the ways in which collectors influence not only the market but also the intellectual framing of art, determining what is made visible and what remains obscure.

With Duval-Carrié's intricate works that bridge the African Diaspora and Caribbean culture, Schemes of Visibility offers a rich tapestry that is simultaneously personal and universal. It invites participants—artists, collectors, and viewers alike—to reconsider their roles in the ongoing conversation about art’s visibility and its impact on cultural consciousness.
