Paul Stephen Benjamin: Reinterpreting the Sound of Blackness

Paul Stephen Benjamin (American, b. 1966) is a conceptual artist whose work is a meditation on the color black, specifically as an entry point into discussions of identity, race, and masculinity. Benjamin creates multilayered and large-scale sculptures and video installations, incorporating history, text, and popular culture. This solo presentation at Telfair Museums will be the artist’s largest presentation to date and includes large-scale video installation, sculpture, and new site-specific works.
