SUMMARY:Washington\, DC | Artist Studio Visit with Lex Marie
DESCRIPTION:We’re excited to present a studio visit with Lex Marie in Washington\, DC!  \n\n\n\nLex will walk guests through the large-scale works she has created over the past two years at her current studio before transitioning out in July. She will share her process\, the unconventional materials she often incorporates\, and how they help tell stories about Black childhood\, motherhood\, and social justice. Her work is heavily inspired by personal experiences\, community narratives\, and the resilience of marginalized voices. \n\n\n\nVisitors can expect a behind-the-scenes look at how her sculptures and mixed media works come together\, and insight into the themes that ground her practice. She will also preview a few upcoming projects that continue to explore these narratives in new ways. \n\n\n\nLex Marie (b. 1992: Prince Georges County\, MD) is a multidisciplinary artist who creates paintings\, sculptures and installations that reflect her individual experiences yet encompasses the experiences of many in the African diaspora. Marie’s artistic practice is as an exploration of the weighty realities experienced by many African American children and children of color. Her work is a testament to the profound impact of adultification biases\, food insecurity\, and the systemic challenges entrenched in American school systems\, healthcare systems\, in the home and out in the world. Through a fusion of everyday materials\, often reclaimed and repurposed\, Marie offers a tangible manifestation of the intangible struggles faced by these young minds\, compelling viewers to confront the profound significance inherent in the seemingly ordinary. \n\n\n\nMarie holds a BA in studio art with a concentration in painting from the University of Maryland\, College Park. Marie’s most recent solo exhibition “LetThem Kids Be Kids” opened at the Museum of Contemporary Art Arlington (2022). Marie’s work has been curated into group exhibitions including REVISIT/REIMAGINE (Banneker-Douglas Museum\, 2024)\, In Tender Peaks\, Grace Unfolds (Mitochondria Gallery\, 2024)\, A Color Story (Cierra Britton Gallery\, 2024)\, and Stories From My Childhood (Northern Illinois University Art Museum\, 2022). Marie received the Washingtinton Studio Award from S&R Evermay in 2023 and currently works in Washington\, DC \n\n\n\nProgram Admission: \n\n\n\n\nArtTable Members – $15\n\n\n\nArtTable Member Guest – $20\n\n\n\nGeneral Admission – $25\n\n\n\n\nNot a member?

SUMMARY:New York\, NY | After Hours Reception and Tour of "Amy Sherald: American Sublime" at the Whitney Museum
DESCRIPTION:ArtTable invites you to a special evening at the Whitney Museum of American Art! \n\n\n\n\nJoin us for an after hours reception in the Whitney’s Trustee Room\, which features floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Hudson and the High Line. The reception will include wine and light bites.  \n\n\n\nAfter the reception\, join us for a guided tour of Amy Sherald: American Sublime and Louise Nevelson’s Collection View.  \n\n\n\nAmy Sherald is a storyteller. She creates precisely crafted narratives of American life\, selecting\, styling\, and photographing her sitters as the foundation for her nuanced paintings. Thus\, while Sherald (b. 1973; Columbus\, Georgia) bases her works on specific people\, they are more than traditional portraits. They center everyday Black Americans\, compelling in their individuality and extraordinary in their ordinariness\, inviting viewers to step into Sherald’s imagined worlds. In this exhibition\, paintings of such ordinary Americans join her iconic portraits of First Lady Michelle Obama and\, heartbreakingly\, Breonna Taylor\, to produce a resonant ode to the multiplicity and complexity of American identity.  \n\n\n\nLouis Nevelson had a long and deep relationship with the Whitney Museum\, which organized her first retrospective in 1967. Today the Museum is one of the largest repositories of her work\, with over ninety sculptures\, drawings\, and prints in the collection\, many of them gifts of the artist. The works gathered in this exhibition\, which span four decades\, offer a special opportunity to shine a light on this self-proclaimed “architect of shadows.” \n\n\n\n\nProgram Admission: \n\n\n\n\nArtTable Member – $35\n\n\n\nArtTable Member Guest – $40\n\n\n\n\nNot a member? Join today! \n\n\n\nNow open to all members and member guests! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArtTable’s programs are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.
