Amy Sherald Instagram - “OUR humanity is bound up in HERS, for we can only be human together.”[sic]~Desmond Tutu 🤍🤍🤍 @withregram • @vanityfair Presenting Breonna Taylor for Vanity Fair’s September issue, “The Great Fire.” 

Five months have passed since police killed Breonna Taylor in her own home, a violent crime that our September issue guest editor Ta-Nehisi Coates ascribes to a belief in Black people as a disaster, as calamity. “I don’t know how else to comprehend the jackboots bashing in Breonna Taylor’s door and spraying her home with bullets, except the belief that they were fighting some Great Fire—demonic, unnatural, inhuman.” 

Coates chose the "The Great Fire" as the theme for the issue, which assembles activists, artists, and writers to offer a portrait of hope in a world where the possibility of a legitimate anti-racist majority is emerging for the first time in American history. “Something is happening,” writes @tanehisipcoates, “and I think to understand it, we must better understand the nature of this Great Fire.” 

For his cover story, Coates tells Breonna’s story through the words of her mother. Also in the issue: an oral history of the historic days after George Floyd's death; a portfolio of creatives and visionaries who capture the spirit—and urgency—of the moment; director @ava DuVernay's conversation with revolutionary Angela Davis; and much more. Read “The Great Fire” at the link in bio now. Painting by Amy Sherald (@asherald).

Amy Sherald Instagram - This diptych is my ode to Baltimore City and dirt bike culture everywhere. Cities around the country have aggressively moved to crack down on urban dirt biking. But the riders, predominantly people of color, are left with nowhere to go and no readily available options to ride. I hope in the future that municipalities will be able to leverage productive urban planning methodologies similar to what they have done to accommodate for bicycles, and skateboarders. Because for most of rider’s the choice to get on a bike is a choice to choose a positive path in life.  Scroll to see some footage of @wheeliewayne and @chad__5 the day of our shoot. I remain in awe of their skillz.  #baltimorecity #dirtbike #motorcycle

Amy Sherald Instagram - I tell the story all the time of how I went to the Columbus Museum in my Georgia hometown for the first time on an elementary school field trip with @gerimdavis my beloved art teacher at St Anne’s School. It was an exhibition of @thebobartlett paintings. As we walked through the show my eyes were wide open when they landed on an image of a man standing in yard. He was tall, and beautifully black. He met my gaze and I saw my future. I was captivated not only by him but by the idea that I wanted to make big beautiful paintings that told my story. 40 years later here we are. Representation matters. It did then and does now more than ever. Congratulations on a beautiful show Bo! @miles.mcenery.gallery #columbusga #bobartlett #painters

Amy Sherald Instagram - It’s my Mommaners birthday also known as The Geraldine also known as The General. My favorite thing about looking in the mirror now at 47 is seeing her face in my face.  I reflect about her 47 year old self  and think about myself now at the same age.  She is such an amazing woman.  So grateful for all she pours into our family.  Today is also my heart transplant birthday.  So on this day my gratitude to have my life extended to be able to wish her a happy birthday always stands at attention to my donor Kristins family. 👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏽#adventuresofkristinandamy #hearttransplantrecipient #birthdaygirls

Amy Sherald Instagram - #AmySherald (@asherald) is an icon of the art world. Her portraits of #MichelleObama and #BreonnaTaylor have been championed as modern masterpieces, and she is about to be the subject of her first major museum survey at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Her works have a visual language all their own that has helped to bring her universal fame, but she tells Bazaar she’s often focusing on the larger picture. “I’m a small part in this big universe,” she says. “It helps me keep things in perspective.” Read her full #BazaarIcons interview at the link in bio.

Amy Sherald Instagram - RP This was so much fun @samiranasr 🖤thank you @harpersbazaarus Artists Calida Rawles (@calidagarciarawles) and Amy Sherald (@asherald) and writer Ta-Nehisi Coates (@tanehisipcoates) have been friends since the mid-’90s, when Rawles and Sherald were studio mates at Spelman College in Atlanta, and Coates was an undergrad at Howard University in Washington, D.C. But beyond their shared history, there are central notions of personal, physical, political, and creative freedom that they’ve each explored in their work. For our June/July issue, the trio explore imagination, representation, and where they’ve found freedom in their own lives. Read the full conversation at the link in bio.

Amy Sherald Instagram - Her library has burned. “In Senegal, the polite expression for saying someone has died is to say his or her library has burned. Our minds and souls contain volumes inscribed by our experiences and emotions; each individual’s consciousness is a collection of memories we’ve cataloged and stored inside us, a private library of a life lived. It is something that no one else can entirely share, one that burns down and disappears when we die. But if you can take something from that internal collection and share it — with one person or with the larger world on the page or in a story recited — it takes on a life of its own.” - The Library Book.  I first heard this phrase while listening to a conversation between Krista Tippett and @jasonreynolds83 during @onbeing podcast. It came back to me yesterday as I was sitting with everything that bell hooks has gifted  us through her writings. 🖤#bellhooks Rest In Peace

Amy Sherald Instagram - RP 🖤✔️• @cleowade The best way to not feel helpless, is to help. However you can. Helping, like healing, looks different for everyone. We all have different capacities and varied ways we are able to show up. But remember, there is always some way to show up for whatever it is that is breaking you heart. 

I will put some resources to learn more about the crises happening in Haiti and Afghanistan in my stories.  Two organizations I am personally donating to, following,and learning more about are @mothersofafghanistan currently serving Kabul/Jalalabad and @sowaseed working with orphaned children in Haiti. 

I love you.

Amy Sherald Instagram - Introducing the Artists on Artists issue starring @asherald and @jonbatiste.

It’s been a busy year for the history-making painter and musician. Amy Sherald just opened “American Sublime,” her mid-career survey and largest exhibition yet, at the @sfmoma; while Jon Batiste returned to his classical roots with his recent album “Beethoven Blues,” which presents modern renditions of the canonical composer’s works.

Despite their sweeping impacts on contemporary culture, both artists—shot by @danascruggs in Sherald’s New Jersey studio—are careful to protect the delicate filament, that “pure thing,” at the heart of their work. “When you’re in that flow state, sometimes you forget how you got to the end result. I feel like a vessel. I work hard so I can then be in the moment like a kid,” Batiste tells Sherald. “It’s like a trance,” the painter adds. “The ideas come, and I do what I’m told.”

To read the full conversation between Amy Sherald and Jon Batiste and pre-order your copy of the Artists on Artists issue, head to the link in bio. 

Amy wears a dress by @gabrielahearst, earrings by @davidyurman, and bracelets and a ring by @vancleefarpels. Jon wears a suit, shirt, and tie by @ysl; ring by @cartier; and shoes by @louboutinworld. Additional jewelry is musician’s own.

This winter, CULTURED presents our inaugural Artists on Artists issue. An ode to unfettered creativity, bold experimentation, and collaboration, this edition includes a trio of cover conversations between figures—from filmmakers to painters and musicians—who are committed to illuminating our strange, uncertain moment.

Amy Sherald - 37.1K Likes - “OUR humanity is bound up in HERS, for we can only be human together.”[sic]~Desmond Tutu 🤍🤍🤍 @withregram • @vanityfair Presenting Breonna Taylor for Vanity Fair’s September issue, “The Great Fire.” 

Five months have passed since police killed Breonna Taylor in her own home, a violent crime that our September issue guest editor Ta-Nehisi Coates ascribes to a belief in Black people as a disaster, as calamity. “I don’t know how else to comprehend the jackboots bashing in Breonna Taylor’s door and spraying her home with bullets, except the belief that they were fighting some Great Fire—demonic, unnatural, inhuman.” 

Coates chose the "The Great Fire" as the theme for the issue, which assembles activists, artists, and writers to offer a portrait of hope in a world where the possibility of a legitimate anti-racist majority is emerging for the first time in American history. “Something is happening,” writes @tanehisipcoates, “and I think to understand it, we must better understand the nature of this Great Fire.” 

For his cover story, Coates tells Breonna’s story through the words of her mother. Also in the issue: an oral history of the historic days after George Floyd's death; a portfolio of creatives and visionaries who capture the spirit—and urgency—of the moment; director @ava DuVernay's conversation with revolutionary Angela Davis; and much more. Read “The Great Fire” at the link in bio now. Painting by Amy Sherald (@asherald).

Amy Sherald - 15.4K Likes - This diptych is my ode to Baltimore City and dirt bike culture everywhere. Cities around the country have aggressively moved to crack down on urban dirt biking. But the riders, predominantly people of color, are left with nowhere to go and no readily available options to ride. I hope in the future that municipalities will be able to leverage productive urban planning methodologies similar to what they have done to accommodate for bicycles, and skateboarders. Because for most of rider’s the choice to get on a bike is a choice to choose a positive path in life.  Scroll to see some footage of @wheeliewayne and @chad__5 the day of our shoot. I remain in awe of their skillz.  #baltimorecity #dirtbike #motorcycle

Amy Sherald - 11.6K Likes - I tell the story all the time of how I went to the Columbus Museum in my Georgia hometown for the first time on an elementary school field trip with @gerimdavis my beloved art teacher at St Anne’s School. It was an exhibition of @thebobartlett paintings. As we walked through the show my eyes were wide open when they landed on an image of a man standing in yard. He was tall, and beautifully black. He met my gaze and I saw my future. I was captivated not only by him but by the idea that I wanted to make big beautiful paintings that told my story. 40 years later here we are. Representation matters. It did then and does now more than ever. Congratulations on a beautiful show Bo! @miles.mcenery.gallery #columbusga #bobartlett #painters

I reflect about her 47 year old self  and think about myself now at the same age.  She is such an amazing woman.  So grateful for all she pours into our family.  Today is also my heart transplant birthday.  So on this day my gratitude to have my life extended to be able to wish her a happy birthday always stands at attention to my donor Kristins family. 👩🏼‍🤝‍👩🏽#adventuresofkristinandamy #hearttransplantrecipient #birthdaygirls

Her portraits of #MichelleObama and #BreonnaTaylor have been championed as modern masterpieces, and she is about to be the subject of her first major museum survey at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Her works have a visual language all their own that has helped to bring her universal fame, but she tells Bazaar she’s often focusing on the larger picture. “I’m a small part in this big universe,” she says. “It helps me keep things in perspective.” Read her full #BazaarIcons interview at the link in bio.

But beyond their shared history, there are central notions of personal, physical, political, and creative freedom that they’ve each explored in their work. For our June/July issue, the trio explore imagination, representation, and where they’ve found freedom in their own lives. Read the full conversation at the link in bio.

For our June/July issue, the trio explore imagination, representation, and where they’ve found freedom in their own lives. Read the full conversation at the link in bio.

Amy Sherald - 6.5K Likes - Her library has burned. “In Senegal, the polite expression for saying someone has died is to say his or her library has burned. Our minds and souls contain volumes inscribed by our experiences and emotions; each individual’s consciousness is a collection of memories we’ve cataloged and stored inside us, a private library of a life lived. It is something that no one else can entirely share, one that burns down and disappears when we die. But if you can take something from that internal collection and share it — with one person or with the larger world on the page or in a story recited — it takes on a life of its own.” - The Library Book.  I first heard this phrase while listening to a conversation between Krista Tippett and @jasonreynolds83 during @onbeing podcast. It came back to me yesterday as I was sitting with everything that bell hooks has gifted  us through her writings. 🖤#bellhooks Rest In Peace

Amy Sherald - 6.2K Likes - RP 🖤✔️• @cleowade The best way to not feel helpless, is to help. However you can. Helping, like healing, looks different for everyone. We all have different capacities and varied ways we are able to show up. But remember, there is always some way to show up for whatever it is that is breaking you heart. 

I will put some resources to learn more about the crises happening in Haiti and Afghanistan in my stories.  Two organizations I am personally donating to, following,and learning more about are @mothersofafghanistan currently serving Kabul/Jalalabad and @sowaseed working with orphaned children in Haiti. 

I love you.

Amy Sherald - 5.8K Likes - Introducing the Artists on Artists issue starring @asherald and @jonbatiste.

It’s been a busy year for the history-making painter and musician. Amy Sherald just opened “American Sublime,” her mid-career survey and largest exhibition yet, at the @sfmoma; while Jon Batiste returned to his classical roots with his recent album “Beethoven Blues,” which presents modern renditions of the canonical composer’s works.

Despite their sweeping impacts on contemporary culture, both artists—shot by @danascruggs in Sherald’s New Jersey studio—are careful to protect the delicate filament, that “pure thing,” at the heart of their work. “When you’re in that flow state, sometimes you forget how you got to the end result. I feel like a vessel. I work hard so I can then be in the moment like a kid,” Batiste tells Sherald. “It’s like a trance,” the painter adds. “The ideas come, and I do what I’m told.”

To read the full conversation between Amy Sherald and Jon Batiste and pre-order your copy of the Artists on Artists issue, head to the link in bio. 

Amy wears a dress by @gabrielahearst, earrings by @davidyurman, and bracelets and a ring by @vancleefarpels. Jon wears a suit, shirt, and tie by @ysl; ring by @cartier; and shoes by @louboutinworld. Additional jewelry is musician’s own.

This winter, CULTURED presents our inaugural Artists on Artists issue. An ode to unfettered creativity, bold experimentation, and collaboration, this edition includes a trio of cover conversations between figures—from filmmakers to painters and musicians—who are committed to illuminating our strange, uncertain moment.
