Virtual Art Conversations Juan Logan Wednesday, January 13, 6 PM via Zoom CAM Members: $3; Non-Members: $8; Students and Teachers: Free Please pre-register by January 12 “I’d like to see humanity place first in our decision-making process in terms of what’s best for America,” -- Juan Logan Join us for a virtual conversation with the extraordinarily talented artist Juan Logan, whose work is in CAM’s collection. Born in Nashville, Tennessee, Juan Logan now lives and works in Belmont, North Carolina. Logan’s artworks address subjects relevant to the American experience. At once abstract and representational, his paintings, drawings, sculptures, installations, and videos address the interconnections of race, place, and power. They make visible how hierarchical relations and social stereotypes shape individuals, institutions, and the material and mental landscapes of contemporary life. Logan has shown extensively nationally and internationally, has had numerous solo exhibitions, and executed many private and public commissions. Logan’s works can be found in private, corporate, and public collections, including the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Gibbes Museum of Art, the Baltimore Museum of Art, the Memphis Brooks Museum, the Zimmerli Museum of Art, and the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art. Most recently, his piece Some Clouds are Darker became part of the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture. |

Celebrate Martin Luther King Day "I Have a Dream" Peace Flag Project In-Person: Saturday, January 16 from 11 AM-2 PM & Saturday, January 17 from 1-3 PM At Home: Now until Sunday, January 17 at 3 PM Kits are $5 "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character." -Martin Luther King Jr. Cameron Art Museum honors the life and work of civil rights activist Martin Luther King with the "I Have a Dream" Peace Flag Project. We invite the community to take inspiration from King’s iconic speech from 1963 and think deeply about our own hopes and dreams for ourselves, our city, our nation, and the world. These dreams will be written on squares of cloth, emblematic of the peace prayer flags created for centuries in Tibet. Your peace flag will be included in a community installation that will be displayed around the CAM pond. Together, these flags represent our collective desire for racial unity, community healing, and peace. |
