Ranging from a rare 1840 poem jar by enslaved potter David Drake (c. 1800 – c. 1870) to an evocative
2020 abstract painting by Frank Wimberley (born 1926), the GCMA African-American Collection spans
180 years of American history, highlighting such artists as Romare Bearden, Beauford Delaney, William H. Johnson, Jacob Lawrence, Alison Saar, Merton Simpson, Henry Ossawa Tanner, Kara Walker, Hale Woodruff, and many more. A selection of these important works can be found in the museum’s current exhibition Say It Loud.
Spartanburg artist Robert Urban’s latest mixed media works use trees “as a metaphor for family and the relationships we all hold dear within the family circle and beyond.” The contemporary landscapes will be shown in the “Push & Pull: New Work” exhibit Jan. 7 through Feb. 22, 2025, in the Solomon Gallery of the Artists Collective | Spartanburg.
An artist’s reception will be held from 5 to 8 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 16, as part of Spartanburg ArtWalk. The reception and exhibition viewing are free and open to the public. The 30-plus pieces in the show will be offered for purchase with prices ranging from $150 to $5,000.
“Nature, and specifically trees, are used as metaphors to represent the passage of time, within nature itself, of course, but also within our human relationships – our family, friends and communities,” says Urban, originally from Wisconsin. “The exhibition title refers to the many different forces and ways that we experience either a ‘push’ or a ‘pull’ – our interactions within nature, relationships and our communities.”
Uncensored expression: anyone is invited to step up to share song, music, poetry, comedy, rants & raves!
The most eclectic open mic around, in a welcoming gallery setting! 6 pm signup, perform 6:30-8:30 pm.
