The Lamar Dodd School of Art is celebrating the opening of its two new exhibitions, “assemby” by Krista Clark and “Ever Loyal, Ever True” by Steven Thompson, with an art party at The Athenaeum, located at 287 W. Broad St. Clark’s work is a site-specific installation in the main gallery that pushes the boundaries between drawing and sculpture through the lens of abstraction. By manipulating two- and three-dimensional forms, Clark seeks to reveal the “shiftiness between things: interior vs. exterior, place vs. space, and flatness vs. depth.” Thompson’s recent works displayed in the second gallery also push the boundaries of traditional drawing through what’s described as layering, erasure and additive means. There will be live music, refreshments and activities to enjoy while viewing the installations.
