We Buy Gold presents SEVEN., curated by Joeonna Bellorado-Samuels, featuring works by Max Guy, Renee Gladman, David Hammons, Nandi Loaf, Abigail Lucien, Kerry James Marshall, Lorraine O’Grady, Ashley Teamer, Charisse Pearlina Weston, and Lynette Yiadom-Boakye.

SEVEN. explores the ways in which artists disrupt the politics of space, time, and language to constitute another world. In their fertile hands, the measure of time lengthens, bodies morph, and the fixed use-value of objects and language slips—highlighting the foundational fractures present within contemporary society. Distorting the boundaries of the body, architecture, place, and meaning, each artist investigates the generative capacity and possibilities of the undefined and malleable. How are new worlds constituted in the midst of contemporary crises? By leaning into ruptures that open out into an otherwise.
