Upcoming Art Gallery Shows
Carol Barton's Artist's Books
July - September 2008
Carol Barton is a book artist, teacher, and curator whose work is exhibited internationally and is in numerous collections, including the Library of Congress, the Museum of Modern Art, the Getty Museum, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. We will display her beautiful handmade artist's books in a show in our gallery and she will give workshops on pop-up structures and a public lecture about artist's books.
Sue Mulcahy
October -December 2008
Sue Mulcahy is one of the five poster artists whose work is part of the Nashville Public Library's public art program. She will be one of the four Southern artists participating in "Shades of Gray" at the Frist from June 20-September 21, 2008. She is not permitted to show her work regionally until after that exhibition, so she is pleased to have a local venue to follow that in which to show her new work.
Alan LeQuire: Cultural Heroes
February - May 2009
Alan LeQuire's bronze doors welcome our patrons to the Main library on Church Street. He has proposed showing his series of oversized portrait heads called Cultural Heroes. The five people represented in his sculptures are Bessie Smith, Billie Holiday, Leadbelly, Paul Robeson, and Woody Guthrie.
