HANK WILLIS THOMAS - What Goes Without Saying - Jack Shayman - NYC

through November 17th 2012

Representing identity through symbol and political motive, Thomas brings together a series of paintings sourced from the advocacy buttons worn in support of parties, movements and ideologies over the past fifty years. These small gestures are used as intellectual weapons and markers of participation. Alliances are transformed into precious objects that speak to the creation of collective language and the power of symbols.
