In Memoriam: Melvin Edwards (1937–2026)

Renowned sculptor Melvin Edwards, a pioneer of the Black Art Movement who transformed welded steel into powerful explorations of African American identity, has passed away at the age of 88. Edwards was best known for his "Lynch Fragments," a series of over 300 compact, wall-mounted assemblages that utilized industrial materials like chains, meathooks, and barbed wire to evoke the history of racial violence and the struggle for civil rights. His career spanned over six decades, beginning with a breakout solo show at the Santa Barbara Museum of Art in 1965 and a landmark exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art in 1970.

Tiffany Chung’s exhibition at the AD&A Museum maps history within deep geological time

The Art, Design & Architecture (AD&A) Museum at UC Santa Barbara has launched "Tiffany Chung: indelible traces," a mid-career survey of the Vietnamese American artist and UCSB alumna. The exhibition features over 70 works spanning 25 years, including her signature hand-drawn and embroidered maps, video, and sculptural installations. Curated by Orianna Cacchione, the show highlights Chung’s use of cartography to challenge colonial narratives and document the complexities of forced migration, climate crises, and the movement of botanical organisms across continents.
