The core group of artists who initially signed on are former students at the Atlanta College of Art, thus, in many respects {Poem88} speaks to the legacy of that school. Bernat’s curatorial focus is consistent with the philosophy of a handful of professors there who emphasized the necessity for both a solid conceptual framework and excellence of execution in art-making: ideas that are embraced by every artist represented.
Our distinguished artists work in both traditional and nontraditional formats including painting, drawing, photography, installation, and experimental filmmaking. The high caliber of our artists’ work allows for their inclusion in prominent museum and private collections and important publications. Further, each artist represented at {Poem88} is actively engaged in the larger art communities where they live as educators, writers, designers, and lecturers.
We promote and pursue intriguing collaborations in all creative disciplines; we present musical performances, literary readings, and film screenings; finally, we especially encourage discourse on contemporary art and art-making. Come by and visit during gallery hours (Wed-Sat, 12-6). [MAP]
