    About Rashid Johnson

    Rashid Johnson is an American artist associated with conceptual, post-black art, working across exhibitions that mix materials, text, and cultural reference. He came to wider attention in the early 2000s after appearing in a landmark group show at the Studio Museum in Harlem, and he trained in Chicago at Columbia College and the School of the Art Institute. In New York City, his work has been presented in live exhibition contexts at the Whitney and the Guggenheim. His practice favors layered inquiry over clear-cut statements.
