Now showing:

Jerome Myers: Raising Hope in the New World features a group of paintings and works on paper by the artist Jerome Myers, whose work spans the late 19th and first decades of the 20th century. Myers’ work rightfully takes an esteemed place beside those other urban realists like Robert Henri, John Sloan, and George Luks, among many others, who confidently turned away from traditional studio themes to depict the familiar and everyday reality of their surroundings. Much of Myers’ artwork focused on the children of immigrants, playing in the streets and in parks under the watchful eye of mothers and grandmothers who sit on stoops or park benches.
Jule Collins Smith Museum of Fine Art presents Shared Vision: The Sondra Gilman and Celso Gonzalez-Falla Collection of Photography, an exhibition featuring 150 iconic images that reflect the rich and diverse nature of the past 100 years of photography. Organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) Jacksonville and curated by Ben Thompson and Paul Karabinis, this exhibition is a selection from the world-renowned collection of Sondra Gilman and Celso Gonzalez-Falla. The exhibition includes works by prominent photographers, including Robert Adams, Eugène Atget, Walker Evans, Loretta Lux, Sally Mann, Doug and Mike Starn, Robert Mapplethorpe, and Alfred Stieglitz.

Out of the Box: An Outdoor Juried Sculpture Exhibition features ten works of contemporary sculpture to represent ten years of service to Auburn University and community. The artists’ work will be displayed on the museum grounds in a yearlong observance of the anniversary until October 3, 2014. More than 120 submissions from across the United States were submitted and selected by Carol Mickett and Robert Stackhouse.
