White Columns, 91 Horatio Street, through May 15.

I could see a late-in-life MacArthur for this 85-year-old Jersey City–based multidisci­plinary visionary, artist, and poet. Here, Gerald Jackson’s handmade, cobbled-together clothes-of-manycolors hang on mannequins. Let the patterns, colors, and textures sizzle the eye and scintillat­e the mind. These amazing garments look like they could cast spells, protect armies, or make anyone walk in grace. Behold a seer-designer in our midst.
