 T is for Timon – Craig Drennen

September 20 – December 14, 2025

T is for Timon presents a selection from Craig Drennen’s seventeen-year body of work based on Timon of Athens, William Shakespeare’s least admired play. Centered around the play’s characters, Drennen’s series coalesce in a way that explores dualistic, yet intertwined, concepts of bluntness and virtuosity, the cultural and the personal, and success and failure. Drennen’s paintings, sculptural objects, performance art, and installation works on display extend beyond the literary source; each piece acts as a kind of “surrogate”—a means through which both artist and viewer can confront and process shared cultural inheritance and personal memories.

History Lessons – Ahmad Hassan Taylor

September 20 – December 14, 2025

History Lessons Postcard FRONT 1536x1024  

Atlanta-based visual artist, Ahmad Hassan Taylor (AKA “The Atlanta Illustrator”) is a storyteller. His immediately recognizable portrait paintings challenge conventional narratives within art history.

“My heritage is the main influence for this body of work, as I come from a long line of creatives and educators that have positively contributed to this narrative. Though many prominent portraitures throughout history are well-known to the public, I could not think of any that looked quite like me. I often wonder what will happen to our language, history, and culture as we adapt to technology and the persistent flux within our world. My goal is to help alleviate this potential loss of information by creating thoughtful pieces of artwork that educate the world about these influencers of positive change.”
