SUMMARY:The Message
DESCRIPTION:Join the School of Art at UNCG as we welcome Steven M. Cozart to the Gatewood Gallery. This exhibition will be open February 19 – March 20th with a Reception and Artist Talk on February 19. \n\n\n\nSteven M. Cozart is a highly accomplished artist-scholar and documentarian whose passion for Painting and drawing endures despite his colorblindness. His body of figurative work is deeply rooted in his personal experiences and introspections\, with a thematic focus on race and identity in Black America. Through thoughtful and deliberate use of symbolic objects in his imagery\, Cozart addresses the complexities and nuances of stereotypes affecting black men and women\, especially as they exist within the black community itself. \n\n\n\nTo read more about Steven M.
