Upcoming Exhibitions
The Art of the Quilt: Trends
Oct 27 through Dec 29, 2018 Hooker Garrett Gallery More than 40 quilt artists from across the Southeast will exhibit work in this biennial invitational exhibition, co-curated by master quilter Linda Fiedler and quilter Betty Blessin. Themed, Trends, this year's exhibition commemorates the 11th anniversary of The Art of the Quilt. 
Clarence Heinz
Jan 12 through Feb 23, 2019 Box Mezzanine Gallery Clarence Heinz paints what he experienced growing up in Charleston, South Carolina during Jim Crow, what he experienced in the Vietnam War and what he experienced during his 32 years in prison. 
Drawing the Soul: A Collection ofPortraits by Jon Murrill Jan 12 through Feb 23, 2019 Pannill Gallery Jon Murrill provides a contemporary perspective on the human spirit of the working class through the use of expression. Working in charcoal, Murrill captures photorealistic images, allowing his audience to interact with the personality of each portrait. His work does not represent an idealistic beauty, but rather, the spirit of working class individuals and the depth of character that they each possess. 
Eric McRay
Jan 12 through Feb 23, 2019 Hooker Garrett Gallery Unlike many painters who have a single style, Eric McRay works in a range of styles. He has a powerful pictorial discernment that enables him to go from paintings full of splash and spontaneity to images with a sense of organization and reason. 
Artists as Art: Photographic Portraits
Mar 9 through Apr 27, 2019 Pannill Gallery Robert Frank photographs Beat poet Allen Ginsberg hugging a tree, Imogen Cunningham poses Alfred Stieglitz standing in front of a flower painting by Georgia O’Keeffe, and Barbara Morgan captures modern dancer Martha Graham as she stretches her body into a dramatic form; these images convey more than a mere likeness of the artists portrayed. Instead they highlight the collaboration between photographer and subject when both are artists seeking to convey a unique persona. 
Nightfall: Prints of the Dark Hours
Mar 9 through Apr 27, 2019 Hooker Garrett Gallery This exhibition explores nocturnes–images that evoke the night. Luminous apparitions of the divine, dazzling fireworks, lamplit urban streets, and twilight’s soft glow over the natural landscape are all subjects that have intrigued and challenged printmakers across the centuries. 
Expressions 2019
May 18 through Jul 19, 2019 Hooker Garrett Gallery Offering an eclectic mix of styles and media, Expressions is an open-entry judged art exhibit featuring work by more than 140 regional artists. |
