Zimmerli Art Museum Examines American Art Circa 1966
When the Zimmerli's curators first devised two complementary exhibitions of American art titled Circa 1966 - one focusing on prints, the other on paintings and sculpture - the intention was to commemorate the museum's golden anniversary by spotlighting key works created around the time of its founding. But in addition to spotlighting revolutionary movements that now have an established presence in art history, the subjects of many of the works focus on social and political discussions from the era that have prominently re-emerged across the United States.

'Thinking Pictures': Moscow Conceptual Art in the Dodge Collection
September 6 to December 31, 2016 / Voorhees Special Exhibition Gallery
'Thinking Pictures' draws on one of the great strengths of the Norton and Nancy Dodge Collection of Nonconformist Art from the Soviet Union. It presents the visually provocative objects that distinguish Moscow Conceptualism from the forms associated with its namesake, the canonical oeuvres of American and British conceptual artists, in particular. This exhibition focuses on more than 40 individual artists and several collectives who lived and worked in Soviet Moscow from the 1960s to the 1990s. They were concerned with the essential task of creating an audience in an environment that lacked galleries, critics, and a viable art market but had its own institutional framework-one that privileged painting (Socialist Realism).
Alan Avery Art Company Celebrates 33 Years as Atlanta and Southeast's Oldest Contemporary Art Gallery
Opening in October 1981, on Trinity Avenue in downtown Atlanta, Alan Avery Art Company formerly Trinity Gallery led the way in converting open warehouse spaces in fringe neighborhoods into art, gallery and coffee house venues. The gallery was the hip, chic place to be seen when opening night rolled around. In 1994, shortly after the announcement that Atlanta would be the host city for the Olympics, it was decided that the new home of Trinity Gallery would be the iconic space that once housed the famous restaurant Rue de Paris, in the heart of Buckhead. In 2007, the name of the gallery was changed to Alan Avery Art Company. The gallery and its director have been credited for some of the most original and lavish opening receptions in Atlanta.
