Description
By: Jadé Fadojutimi
DWELVE: A Goosebump in Memory documents Jadé Fadojutimi’s inaugural exhibition with Gagosian, and features newly commissioned essays, an interview between the artist and the composer Jerskin Fendrix, and poetic fragments written by Fadojutimi herself.
Jadé Fadojutimi is one of the most exciting artists of her generation. In her striking abstract paintings, which are often monumental in scale, Fadojutimi orchestrates color, space, line, and movement in the service of fluid emotion and the quest for self-knowledge. With a fluidity of gesture and a distinctive palette, she interprets everyday experience in ways that reflect a drive to understand more completely the intertwined ideas of identity and beauty.
Since 2018, when Fadojutimi became the youngest artist to enter the Tate’s collection, her work has been exhibited at and collected by leading institutions around the world. DWELVE: A Goosebump in Memory documents her debut show at Gagosian, New York, in 2024, which included new paintings on canvas and works in notebooks. The title combines the words dwell and delve, suggesting both domestic familiarity and sites that prompt further discovery.
In “A Portrait of the Artist as All of Her Colors,” Harry Thorne revisits Josef Albers’s color theory as a means of repositioning Fadojutimi’s abstractions as a form of self-portraiture. In “Things I Don’t Want to Forget,” Fadojutimi’s painting assistant Marsi Rex reflects on her early interactions with the artist.
In addition to new photography of Fadojutimi’s paintings and notebooks, which are reproduced using a hexachromatic printing method, the book includes poetic fragments written by the artist, as well as a conversation between her and the Academy Award-nominated composer Jerskin Fendrix about the relationship between soundtracks and art.
