SUMMARY:Kenny Nguyen: Adaptations Opening Celebration and Artist Talk
DESCRIPTION:Join Constellation CLT artist Kenny Nguyen and curator Jamila Brown in conversation for the opening celebration of Nguyen’s installation Adaptations. \nAbout the artist and installation: \nThe Cambridge Dictionary defines adaptation as “the process in which a living thing changes slightly over time to be able to continue to exist in a particular environment.” Kenny Nguyen feels this process materialized within himself\, his lineage\, and his methodology of making. Born and raised on a coconut grove in the Ben Tre province of Vietnam\, the artist lived a quiet rural life and later moved to the States at the age of 19. This dispersion from his homeland mapped a new internal geography–a subtle double-consciousness that the artist works with– traversing the spiritual and physical\, the contemporary and historical. Thinking of himself as a hybrid\, Nguyen merges his cultural traditions and the canon of abstract painting and fiber art in an innovative way. Also\, in reverence of ancestors who endured histories of colonization and imperialism by the Chinese and French for hundreds to thousands of years\, Nguyen’s work processes diasporic data and illuminates the shifting nature of place and identity as an ode to these transmutative legacies and an exploration of his own creative metamorphosis. Nguyen’s training in fashion design and painting pair beautifully to realize his distinct practice–one that both deviates from and expands on tradition\, one insistent on adapting to change to find beauty and break barriers.

SUMMARY:Opening Celebration for 'Southern/Modern'
DESCRIPTION:Enjoy free museum admission for the opening celebration of Southern/Modern. The exhibition is the first to provide a comprehensive survey of progressive art created in the American South during the first half of the 20th century. \nCreated in collaboration with Georgia Museum of Art\, the exhibition includes more than 100 paintings and works on paper by artists working in states below the Mason-Dixon line and as far west as those bordering the Mississippi River\, as well as some artists living outside of the region who made significant bodies of work during visits. \nCurated by the Mint’s Senior Curator of American Art Jonathan Stuhlman\, PhD\, and independent scholar Martha Severens\, Southern/Modern takes a broad view of the South and is structured around key themes that traverse geographic regions\, including time and place\, race\, family ties\, and social struggles. It also takes a broad\, inclusive view of the art of the region\, incorporating the creativity and talent of women artists and artists of color across its various thematic sections to provide a fuller\, richer\, and more accurate overview of the artistic activity in the American South at the time.

SUMMARY:Women of Land and Smoke Curator Talk
DESCRIPTION:Chief Curator and Curator of Contemporary Art Jen Sudul Edwards\, PhD\, introduces the poignant and powerful photography exhibition Women of Land and Smoke: Photographs by Graciela Iturbide and Maya Goded\, discussing themes throughout the exhibition\, followed by a Q-and-A session.* \nAbout the exhibition \nInternationally renowned photographers Graciela Iturbide and Maya Goded  have created revealing images that examine the intersection of contemporary life and centuries-long practices throughout North and South America. Both artists\, hailing from Mexico City\, have dedicated their practice to spending extensive time with their subjects before photographing them. This creates an intimacy and a knowledge of the particular challenges and dynamics embedded in the communities they document. Through their lens\, Iturbide and Goded consistently highlight the vital role of women in holding together fragmenting societies\, whether in urban or isolated communities. This is the first exhibition to present the work of Iturbide and Goded in tandem. \nWomen of Land and Smoke: Photographs by Graciela Iturbide and Maya Goded (Las Mujeres de Tierra y Humo: Las Fotografías de Graciela Iturbide y Maya Goded) features over 50 photographs that present an overview of the artists’ careers\, spanning decades and diverse series. \n*Due to a family emergency\, Maya Goded will not be able to attend this event as previously scheduled.
