ALPHA OMEGA ARTS
By
Gregory & Ernest Disney-Britton
Most people turn 60, and they don't feel different.
Ernest turned 60 this week, and feels like he's begun a
new chapter titled "silver sexty." His trademark
blue shirts are no longer enough, and he's coveting pink and white. After a ten year fixation with
Kehinde Wiley, his new artist crush is "
Soundsuits" fabric sculptor
Nick Cave, who also turned sixty this year. For decades, Cave's colorful work responded to
racial violence, but at 60, he is turning to
pure joy in a new show in
Boston. Beginning God's next chapter, that makes
Nick Cave our artist of the week.
