SUMMARY:Abebui Adekai: Proverb Boxes for a Life Well Traveled by Jacob Paa Joe Jr.
DESCRIPTION:By Jacob Paa Joe Jr.\nThe Victoria Gallery\, 1st Floor \nExtended through 7/14 by popular demand! \nAbebui Adekai: Proverb Boxes for a Life Well Traveled by Jacob Paa Joe Jr. is a new sculptural installation by Ghanaian artist and master craftsman\, Jacob Tetteh-Ashong\, also known as Paa Joe Jr. Featuring a newly created large-scale “fantasy coffin” with a selection of miniature sculptural boxes\, Abebui Adekai: Proverb Boxes for a Life Well Traveled is a collaborative project and an opportunity to witness the process of creating a traditional Ghanaian figurative coffin in Pittsburgh for the first time while learning more about Paa Joe Coffin Works\, and the Paa Joe Art Academy initiative in Accra\, Ghana. \nAbebui Adekai: Proverb Boxes for a Life Well Traveled by Jacob Paa Joe Jr. is inspired by August Wilson’s affinity for knickknacks and personal collection of rooster figurines\, seen inside The Writer’s Landscape permanent exhibition\, and evokes how Wilson uses the rooster as a symbol for his views of the Great Migration of African Americans who traveled from the agrarian South to industrial cities like Pittsburgh.
