THE PROMISE OF LIGHT: RICO GATSON Art Exhibit

reporter: Miguel Dominguez

Rico surrounded by his art.

On April 6th, Ronald Feldman Fine Arts presented new work by Rico Gatson. The Promise of Light is partly inspired by the book, The Warmth of Other Suns by Isabel Wilkerson, which chronicles the black migration out of the American South spanning World War I through the early 1970’s. Gatson’s family undertook this journey, moving from Georgia to California in the late 60’s for the promise of a new beginning. The “promise” is a reference to the intrinsic optimism of the distinctive California light, while alternately referencing the universal struggle inherent in striving toward idealized promise.
