THE ECSTASY OF INFLUENCE: MIDSOUTH ARTISTS CENTERING THE MARGINS

Clough-Hanson Gallery (Rhodes College) / 2000 N Pkwy. January 20, 2023 - March 10, 2023

Ahmad George, Maritza Dávila, Tommy Kha, Richard Lou, D'Angelo Lovell Williams

Mentors and students, Midsouth natives and travelers, queer, Latinx, Chicano, nonbinary, Asian American, Black - the artists in this show are incredibly diverse, and all work with a commitment to express the richness of their identity. This commitment is steadfast, despite (or perhaps because of) the fact that their identities are historically marginalized in the region. The work of this intergenerational, interconnected group draws attention to the diverse communities that have called the Midsouth home for generations, while maintaining distinct individuality that speaks to the present moment.
