Two Art Basel Miami Beach 2017 VenuesFeature New African Diva Prints and Works on Paper by Artist Margaret Rose Vendryes

Margaret Rose Vendryes, Associate Professor of Art History and Fine Arts at York College, CUNY, began The African Diva Project in 2007, now numbering over 45 works of art. The Project complicates the role ethnic and gender identities play in contemporary African and African American visual culture by merging African aesthetics with popular African-American music and visual culture. Vendryes has had solo exhibitions in Boston, New York, and Biloxi as well as participation in group exhibitions over the last decade.
