When he died seven years ago, a lifetime of collected pens and markers, papers, letters, folders and calendars were discovered in his home, along with a stack of unique architectural drawings. Some of his inventive illustrations are on view this... | more...

When Georgia Schley Ritchie began curating shows in London, she says she was just another person interested in British art. But in Atlanta, Schley Ritchie’s shows are a break from the ordinary. This weekend’s More Cool Britannia brings a host of works by 18 British artists to a seldom-open downtown space.

As Atlanta’s public transportation system grows increasingly inaccessible, it should come as no surprise that self-propulsion is the subject of two shows at Eyedrum this month titled Heavy Metal: The Bikes of Matt Colman and I Am My Transportation. From the banal to the bizarre, a handful of local artists have created a series of works dealing with everything from bicycle and shoe fetishes, to... | more...
