About the Item

Terry Adkins Untitled Number 14, 1990 Signed and dated on reverse Mixed media on paper 39 x 27 1/4 inches Provenance The artist Gifted to Jackie Battle, New York c. 1990 Acquired from the above, New York As a child in Washington, DC, Adkins was surrounded by music. His parents both played multiple instruments—a skills they passed onto Adkins—and he listened to songs by the likes of John Coltrane and Nina Simone. While he demonstrated a penchant for drawing at a young age, he intended to study history and become a lawyer. Upon arriving at Fisk University, however, he found himself drawn to visual art, particularly printmaking. He studied under David Driskell and Martin Puryear and came into contact with Aaron Douglas, a professor emeritus. During his graduate studies, he shifted to sculpture. He began using paper, wood, and metal, familiar materials from printmaking processes. Throughout his schooling and residencies at the Studio Museum and MoMA PS1, he continued to play music and experiment with installation and performance. Interested in the transformative capabilities of found materials, Adkins aimed to bridge the realms of music and sculpture by creating works that are both monumental objects and functional instruments. One-person exhibitions of Adkins’ work include Recital at the Frances Tang Teaching Museum at Skidmore College, NY, that travelled to the Block Museum of Art at Northwestern University, IL (2012); an exhibition of video art at the University Galleries at Illinois State University (2016); a restaging of performances by the Lone Wolf Recital Corps, Adkins’ revolving collective, at the Museum of Modern Art, NY (2016); Infinity is Always Less Than One at the ICA Miami (2018); Resounding at the Pulitzer Arts Foundation (2020); and shows at the Fisk University and the Frist Museum in Nashville (2020). Adkins was included in the Performa Biennial in 2013, the Whitney Biennial in 2014 and the Venice Biennale in 2015.
