From the venue:

This exhibition delves into the complexities of Black masculinity, challenging stereotypes and providing a nuanced perspective. Through various mediums, the participating artists engage with themes of identity, resilience, and cultural heritage.

We believe that “Hold The Line” is not just an art exhibition but a powerful statement about the strength, creativity, and resilience of Black men.

The phrase “Hold the Line” alludes to a military tactic, in which a line of troops was supposed to hold strong to prevent an enemy breakthrough. An all-male assembly of some of Atlanta’s most talented black male artists will draw and hold said “line” using a wide array of visual styles, techniques, and mediums.

Black men… men in general, need to have a healthy or balanced sense of masculinity. Men who are more connected with their emotions will experience increased life satisfaction, self-esteem, and decreased rates of mental health problems such as depression and anxiety. The Hold the Line Exhibition aims to create a healthy dialog around this heavily debated subject.
