To Be Real is a solo exhibition by Atlanta-based artist and 3rd year DPP grad Bethany Collins to be on display in the Xchange Gallery at The Arts Exchange October 15 – November 5, 2011. The work is “…an exploration of racial identity, authenticity, and definitions, and represents a continued longing for what author Rebecca Walker refers to in her autobiography as the ‘black outline around my body that everyone else seems to have.’” A large-scale chalkboard wall drawing will be accompanied by acrylic and graphite paintings on brown paper bags and un-stretched canvas.
The exhibition will open along with The Arts Exchange Open House, 750 Kalb Street SE, Atlanta, GA 30312, on Saturday, October 15, 4 pm - 8 pm. The public is invited. For further information, call404-624-4211.
