For the first time ever in Atlanta, this exhibition gives an insider’s view into the daily life and activities of this heralded art college known for pushing the envelope in mediums such as art, design, music, and more. Notable faculty and students included Josef and Anni Albers, Walter Gropius, Robert Motherwell, Cy Twombly, Robert Rauschenberg, Willem and Elaine de Kooning, Merce Cunningham, John Cage, and Buckminster Fuller. Idea + Place will contain many works of art documenting Asheville, North Carolina’s Black Mountain College people, along with its ideas, principles, practices that encompassed the area. — OJ
