In August 2016, Transmitter, a collaborative curatorial gallery in Brooklyn, New York, hosted The Black & White Project, curated by Yifat Gat for Look & Listen. This exhibition featured works by 59 artists from around the world.
The exhibition showcased a diverse range of works, including illustrative, grid-based drawings, embroidery, reductive graphics, and intuitive freehand pieces, all created in black and white. The project aimed to highlight both the similarities and differences among the participating artists' approaches, fostering a rich dialogue around contrasts and artistic expression. This exhibition was the fifth iteration of The Black & White Project, following previous exhibitions in London and other locations. An accompanying publication, featuring works by 100 artists, was available for purchase during the exhibition. The Black & White Project continues to explore the enduring impact of monochromatic art in contemporary practice, fostering a global dialogue among artists and audiences.
