Exhibition Oct 3 7- 12am POSTPONED to Nov. 7th

Flux Projects's annual one-night public art celebration moves to the Old Fourth Ward and the Martin Luther King, Jr. Historic District. Curator Nato Thompson's theme "Dream" pays homage to the surrounding neighborhood where Dr. King served as a leader in a movement that changed the world.

In August of 1963, at the culmination of The March on Washington, Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his famous speech that put his dreams for our nation into words. They were sweet, eloquent, hypnotic words that stirred the hopes of a country and its imagination. His dream asked for the best in people and in a sense, asked for the world as we knew it, to become the place we dreamed about.

Fifty-two years later Dr. King's call to action still rings true. Thompson has selected a diverse, provocative, and accomplished group of artists to create projects that invite us to continue dreaming of a more just and peaceful world. These projects will be a mix of visual and performance art that fills a five-block area and flows from the streets, through empty lots, up buildings, and into the sky.

Exhibition Oct 8 - Oct 23

URBAN WILDERNESS + MAN-MADE NATURE is a photography exhibit showcasing two photographers' work beginning on October 8th with a speaking event on October 20th. The exhibit will include work on display both indoors and outdoors with images highlighting urban features of the city like the Atlanta BeltLine. Virginie Kippelen and Shannon Davis bring a fresh perspective to the urban forest of Atlanta and the importance of paying attention to how the people of a city transform the canopy.

Virginie seeks out nature in the city and creates images that reflect on her experience of walking in parks and green spaces in search of a sense of wilderness.

Shannon focuses on areas where man has consciously moved or manipulated nature in order to co-exist. She frames these innocuous reconstructed spaces as if they are beautiful natural landscapes.
