This excellent collection of photo-based work that explores black identity celebrates the tenth anniversary of Toronto's Wedge Curatorial Projects, founded by collector and Wedge Gallery Director, Kenneth Montague. Over the past decade, the project has evolved to include community workshops, collaborations with local organizations, international galleries and even a music compilation series. The works range from vintage Harlem Renaissance images to documentary photographs of Africa; from pictures of the Black British Arts movement to contemporary portraiture and conceptual work. Themes include identity, beauty, displacement and memory. One particular standout is a series of 1970s and 80s color portraits of black New York City youths by Jamel Shabazz--a mini visual diary of the streets of that infamous era, where kids pose for the camera wearing gold necklaces, brand-new matching sneakers, huge sunglasses and unlimited amounts of style. With works by Lee Friedlander, J.D. 'Okhai Ojeikere, Dawit Petros, Seydou Keita, Malick Sidibe, Aaron Siskind, Mickalene Thomas, James VanDerZee and Hank Willis-Thomas, among others, "Flava" offers both a historical and a contemporary survey of the global diaspora.
