It has been admired, detested, desired, rejected, used, and abused throughout history.Literal and symbolic layers and extensions reveal tensions and intentions within culture and society.Hair—whether short, long, shaved, straight, curly, or anything in between—embodies identity in Frida Kahlo’s brows, military crops, spikes, braids, dreadlocks, and fros.Artists in the show examine societal and personal factors through various literal, metaphorical, and poetic expressions that explore the hairy, the scary, and the extraordinary in HAIR.” – Andrea Arroyo\n\n\n\n\nWomen in the Heights: Hair – Untangling Identityparticipating artists:\n\n\n\nTiffany Alfonseca, Massiel Alfonso, Vicky Azcoitia, Yael Ben-Zion, Julie Berman, Rue Boyd-Driver, Melanie Brewster, Miggy Buck, Eileen Burgess, Lisbeth Checo, Destiny Corporan, Karin Dando-Haenisch, Valerie de Leon, Rose Deler, Kat Gooch-Breault, Wilhelmina Grant, Josefina Hernandez, Chae Kihn, Jules Kulaya, Tafy LaPlanche, Rafaela Luna, Patricia Miranda, Adaley Muñoz, Mesoma Onyeagba, Mari Padilla, Paula Maria Persiani, Yaritza Piñeiro, Leah Poller, Sam Popp, Adria Quinones, Darcy Rogers, Kaé Sato, Diana Schmertz, Arlene Schulman, Alannah Sears, Uniqua Simmons, Debbie Taylor-Kerman, Rafaelina Tineo, Shu Tu, Paola Velarde, Lauren von Eckartsberg, Tamara Wasserman, Tasha Woodson\n\n\n\n\nIMAGE AND PRICE LIST\n\n\n\n\nRue Boyd Driver,Ode to the African Woman and Her Hair, 2025, Poem, CLICK FOR AUDIOMassiel Alfonso, Pelo Malo, 2025, Poem, CLICK FOR AUDIOJules Kulaya, The Appointment, 2025, Poem, CLICK FOR AUDIOTiffany Alfonseca, Daydreamin’,  2023, Acrylic paint, colored pencils and hair accessories, 30" x 40"Vicky Azcoitia, Motherhood Identity, Inkjet pigment print, 13" x 19"Yael Ben-Zion, Wigs, 2007, C-print  (edition of 5), 20" x 24"Julie Berman, Beauty Call (photo by Martin Berman), 1974 (printed 2018), Silver gelatin print, 10" x 8"Julie Berman, The Final Time I Allowed My Mother to Cut My Hair (photo by Martin Berman), 1975 (printed 2016), Silver gelatin print, 8" x 10"Melanie Brewster,Mourning 3, 2025, Mixed media sculpture, 30" x 11" x 1"Melanie Brewster,  Mourning 1, 2025, Mixed media sculpture, 32" x 12" x 2"Eileen Burgess, Stephanie, 2023, Oil on canvas, 29" x 30"Eileen Burgess, Trevor, 2025, Oil on canvas, 26" x 24"Lisbeth Checo, Dear Little Me, 2025, Mixed media, 11" x 14"Destiny Corporan, Eclipse, 2025, Poem, CLICK FOR AUDIOKarin Dando-Haenisch, Bristle Chaos (L), 2025, Digital photographic print on hot press bright fine art paper, 16" x 16"\n Valerie de Leon, The Way She Carries, 2019, Acrylic paint and pigment on paper, 37" x 36"Rose Deler, El Que Quiere Pelo Bonito Tiene Que Aguantar Jalones, 2019, White clay slip oxidation fire to cone 06, glass beads, metal chain, dimensions variableDiana Schmertz,Out of Darkness - American Library Association Bill of Rights, 2023, Laser cut watercolor painting, 9" x 6"Diana Schmertz, The Stop W.O.K.E.
