"Charismatic Goods brings together an intergenerational group of Black, Indigenous, and Latinx artists who explore personal and collective spiritual and religious practices, manifesting the sacred through sculpture, painting, photography, and assemblage. The exhibition title draws inspiration from an essay by Peter Brown about the esteemed status of spiritual objects in Late Antiquity and their circulation through Byzantium, Northern Africa, and the Middle East. The artists in Charismatic Goods focus on the similar migration and blending of contemporary and ancient aesthetics, symbols, and spiritual power in the diaspora from Africa to the Indigenous new worlds. A unique visual language that transcends traditional categorizations through the harmonization of diverse pictorial and material elements arose."
