rashid johnson guggenheim summer cocktail hamptons

Artists Rashid Johnson and Sheree Hovsepian hosted the Guggenheim Museum's annual summer cocktail party at their East Hampton home, celebrating the launch of the Guggenheim Constellation Council, a new philanthropic group offering global access across the museum's institutions. The evening also honored Johnson's mid-career survey "A Poem for Deep Thinkers," on view at the Guggenheim through January 2026, with guests including gallerist David Kordansky, Hauser & Wirth President Marc Payot, collectors Alan and Alessandra Mnuchin, and Guggenheim Director Dr. Mariët Westermann.

Ruminations on Rashid Johnson’s “A Poem for Deep Thinkers”

The article is a reflective review of Rashid Johnson's exhibition "A Poem for Deep Thinkers" at the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. The author describes standing before Johnson's work "Falling Man" (2016), a piece incorporating broken mirrors, burned wood, and personal objects like a copy of Harry Haywood's "Black Bolshevik" and shea butter, which prompts meditations on visibility, identity, and Frantz Fanon's "Black Skin, White Masks." The review also examines Johnson's large-scale installation "Antoine's Organ" (2016/2026), which fills a gallery typically reserved for Ellsworth Kelly's minimalist canvases, transforming the space with scaffolding, plants, books, and video monitors.
