Tyler Mitchell is 23 years young and already fast becoming a big name in photography. His first solo exhibition called I Can Make You Feel Good shows works of what he calls "black utopia. Young people he portrays sensitively, relaxed, proud and free against brightly colored backgrounds or in the freedom of nature. He wants to confront the viewer with that his imagery is not at all natural for black people. In addition to photography from Tyler's personal collection, the exhibition at FOAM features commissioned works and two never-before-seen video works. Through the audiovisual installations, the artist experiments with the sense of play and childlike freedom.
The official opening of the exhibition will take place on Thursday, April 18, in the presence of the artist. Anyone can register via the Facebook event and is welcome from 5:30 p.m.
Opening hours
The exhibition will be on display at FOAM from April 18 to June 5, 2019. The museum is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. every day.
