Wednesday Night Open Mic hosted by Dwayne B
2022-11-23 20:00 - 22:00 | Busboys and Poets, 450 K Street NW, Washington, DC, 20001, United States
Dwayne B! aka the “Crochet Kingpin” is a homegrown DC native poet, activist, break-dancer, and fashion designer. He is one of the hosts of DC’s longest running open mic series, Spit Dat, as well as a member of the Busboys and Poets hosting team for the 5th & K location.
In addition to featured readings at every Busboys and Poets location, SAGAfest Iceland 2015, Spirits and Lyrics NYC and Manassas, Woolly Mammoth Theater, and the C2EA “We Can End AIDS” march, Dwayne’s short form poetry prowess led him to win the Best Haiku Award at the 2011 National Underground Spoken-Word Poetry Awards (NUSPA). His work to increase HIV awareness through spoken-word garnered recognition from the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation, BBCAmerica, the Discovery Channel, and The Washington Post.
Ultimately, his goal is to force his audience to feel. He tends to meet goals. When not documenting his life through poetic meter, he can be found on the metro making scarves and hats, or singing karaoke.

Paintings and Works on Paper is the gallery’s first solo exhibition of Otho D. Branson’s work. The exhibition presents paintings and works on paper made between 2006 and 2021. Each work begins with a root rectangle or square, generating a composition in harmony with itself, reaching a balanced equilibrium. The artist employs colors and grays following the gradations of hue, value, and chroma codified in the Munsell Color System, developed in the early 20th century to create a rational way to describe the full spectrum of colors and systematically illustrate color concepts for scientific research.

TIM DOUD: PROLEPSIS
2022-11-17 08:00 - 2022-12-23 17:00 | HEMPHILL, 434 K Street NW, Washington, DC, 20001
Prolepsis is the gallery’s inaugural exhibition of Tim Doud’s work. The show presents only three works with each selected from ongoing large-scale projects. In addition to stylistic traits, the three pieces are tied together by a preoccupation with fabric and the semiotic nature of fabric patterns. Hundreds of fabric patterns are referenced throughout the paintings exhibited. One might assume the fabric patterns have been chosen at random or simply for their graphic features. However, the artist’s previous work was rooted in portraiture and each of his subjects dressed for the occasion. Through the intense demand of painting the details of these costumes, Doud became inspired by the symbolism of the clothing. Each garment and its fabric parts point to its ethnographic source and a trail of meanings. In each of the three pieces in the show fabric patterns are arranged in familiar visual systems, one in a taxonomic gridding of 100 small paintings, another riffing on cubist design strategies, and the third, a massive interlacing of multiple textiles. Doud’s arranging and weaving together of fabric patterns as painting subject becomes representative of a population, a “we the people.” The paintings are loud and boisterous, overflowing with the visual drama of conflicting abstract imagery. Relying on art’s inherent ambition for and against balance, Doud demonstrates a collective struggle to reach harmony. Each painting professes the potential for a positive outcome. Each is the equivalent of a social vestment. No doubt you will recognize a fabric you have worn.
