Atlanta Biennial Announces List of Participating Artists
The Atlanta Contemporary Art Center, or Atlanta Contemporary, has announced the thirty-three artists participating in the returning Atlanta Biennial. Veronica Kessenich, the executive director at Atlanta Contemporary, said of the upcoming exhibition: “This Biennial brings together four curators with distinct points of view and curatorial methodologies . . . They found common ground in their combined interest to exhibit individuals and collectives who have never before participated in an Atlanta Biennial. While the participants represent eight states from across the Southeast, they do not relegate themselves to any specific sense of geography or space rather, together, their work examines the current state of contemporary art and contemporary issues.”
The list of artists who will exhibit in the show, running August 27 through December 18, 2016, is as follows:
