Responding to Home Sept. 13-Nov. 9
The title of the exhibition is drawn from observations about what the word home means in today’s highly mobile, often rootless society. The exhibit features 59 photographs and multi-media works by William Boling, Charles J. Hemard III, Jane Robbins Kerr, Judy Morris Lampert, Hank Margeson, Jerry Siegel and Karen Tauches. The exhibition touches on both simple and complex notions of home and how it shapes our identity and the ways we view the world around us. Responding to Home was organized by The Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia and guest-curated by Susan Todd-Raque.
