CLIFFORD PRINCE KING
Clifford Prince King is an artist living and working in New
York and Los Angeles. King documents his intimate relationships
in traditional, everyday settings that speak
on his experiences as a queer black man. In these instances,
communion begins to morph into an offering of
memory; it is how he honors and celebrates the reality
of layered personhood. Within King's images are nods
to the beyond. Shared offerings to the past manifest in
codes hidden in plain sight, known only to those who sit
within a shared place of knowledge.
Public collections holding his work include the Hammer
Museum, Kleefeld Contemporary Art Museum, Los Angeles
County Museum of Arts, ICA Miami, Minneapolis
Institute of Art and Studio Museum in Harlem. King has
recently exhibited work at Jeffrey Deitch Gallery (Los Angeles),
Higher Pictures (New York City), Leslie Lohman
Museum (New York City), Light Work (Syracuse, NY), MASS
MoCA, Marc Selwyn Gallery (Beverly Hills), and Stars Gallery
(Los Angeles). Publications carrying King’s images as
commissioned work and features include Aperture, BUTT,
Cultured, Dazed, i-D, Interview, T Magazine, The New York
Times, Vice, Vogue and The Wall Street Journal.
