"Tina Girouard: SIGN-IN"

Organized by Rivers Institute for Contemporary Art & Thought and presented in partnership with Ogden Museum of Southern Art, "Tina Girouard: SIGN-IN" is the first comprehensive posthumous retrospective for the Louisiana-born artist, Tina Girouard (b. 1946 – d. 2020), and showcases over forty years of the artist’s practice.

Known as a collaborator in artist communities in New York, New York, Lafayette, Louisiana, and Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Girouard’s work tells an expansive story of American art. A vanguard artist in the fields of performance, film, textile, printmaking and community-based practices, Girouard’s animated work explores the different places she called home.
