The Kuerner Farm

Now on view at the Brandywine, Jerrell Gibbs: No Solace in the Shade provides an overview of the career of Baltimore artist Jerrell Gibbs (b. 1988). His dynamic, large-scale figurative paintings of family, friends, and community focus on everyday scenes of Black life, transforming them into monumental moments that highlight the universal themes of identity, reflection, and belonging. Organized by the Brandywine and guest curated by Angela N. Carroll, this project marks the artist’s first solo museum exhibition and first monographic publication. In the interview below, learn more about Gibbs’s process, inspiration, and what he hopes visitors will take away from seeing his work in person.
