| book description |

Fifty years of DeVane's energetic, interactive sculptures, paintings and works on paper Maryland-based artist Oletha DeVane (born 1952) has long been a prominent presence in the Baltimore-area art scene, working in all media, including public sculpture. Spectrum of Light and Spirit documents the first full retrospective of her work, from early paintings to video artworks and interactive sculpture. Among the works presented here is a large-scale carved sculpture, Nâ€™Kisi Womanâ€”Universal Nâ€™Kisi (2021â€“22); nkisi is a Kongo cultural figure invested with sacred energy. The work reflects DeVaneâ€™s fascination with how materials convey meaning and reemerge as myths and memories. â€œOletha DeVane is a wayfinder and a storyteller,â€ says the retrospectiveâ€™s curator, Lowery Stokes Sims. â€œOver the last five decades as she has traveled in Asia, Africa and the Caribbean, she has been inspired by the stories and characters she encounters, bringing the unexpected to light, while finding new nuances in the old and familiar, and unexpected correlations among those varied cultures.â€
