Harmony Hammond: Crossings + Accumulations

Artwork and text by Harmony Hammond
Text by Alex Bacon

Harmony Hammond: Crossings + Accumulations brings together documentation of two recent exhibitions of the artist’s work, Crossings and Accumulations, at Alexander Gray Associates. Featuring large-scale, textured, surface-heavy canvases, both exhibitions further refine the artist’s interest in “material engagement” to expand and subvert the narrative of modernist abstraction. In these series, the artist imbues abstraction with bodily content, embodying her belief that materials and the ways they are manipulated can bring social and political content into formal abstraction. The book features Hammond’s own writings about Crossings, along with an essay on her overall practice by scholar Alex Bacon.
