SUMMARY:EXHIBITION: CONSTRUCT & ASSEMBLE
DESCRIPTION:Printmaker Chloe Alexander will feature her latest work in the Milliken Art Gallery in CONSTRUCT & ASSEMBLE. The exhibition is a visual case study that explores social conditioning from the everyday perspective of “the other;” in this case\, a Black person living in the American South. “My work is a form of story-telling. Inspired by the rich\, high contrast illustrations found in illuminated texts\, graphic novels\, and children’s fairy tales\, the often-whimsical imagery and characters that I create are meant to provoke a sense of nostalgia and familiarity within the viewer\,” states Alexander. \nChloe Alexander is a printmaker who lives and works in Atlanta\, Georgia. Her most recent work focuses on creating visual narratives by layering various printmaking techniques to create one-of-a-kind\, mixed-media drawings. Chloe obtained her BFA in Printmaking in 2010 and an M.Ed. in 2014\, both from Georgia State University. She has exhibited widely\, including Kai Lin Art Gallery in Atlanta\, the International Print Center in New York\, and Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair in London. Chloe has also been awarded numerous awards\, grants and fellowships\, including a two-year fellowship with The Creatives Project in Atlanta and the Parent Artist Award at Kala Art Institute in Berkeley\, CA. \nCONSTRUCT & ASSEMBLE will run from February 2-March 2\, 2023. Alexander will present a gallery talk on February 2\, 2023 at 6:00 pm in the gallery followed by a reception from 6:30-8:00 pm. \nThe exhibition is located in the Milliken Art Gallery and is free of charge. Gallery hours are Sunday 2:00-5:00pm\, Monday – Friday 9:00 am-5:00 pm. The Gallery is closed during school holidays. \nArtist Website \nFeatrued image: I didn’t Recognize You\, You Changed Your Hair | Silkscreen on BFK Rives paper | 20 x 20″

SUMMARY:Carlos Moseley Series: Chanticleer (SOLD OUT)
DESCRIPTION:The GRAMMY® Award-winning vocal ensemble Chanticleer has been hailed as “the world’s reigning male chorus” by The New Yorker\, and is known around the world as “an orchestra of voices” for its wide-ranging repertoire and dazzling virtuosity. Founded in San Francisco in 1978 by singer and musicologist Louis Botto\, Chanticleer quickly took its place as one of the most prolific recording and touring ensembles in the world\, selling over one million recordings and performing thousands of live concerts to audiences around the world. \nChanticleer’s repertoire is rooted in the Renaissance\, and has continued to expand to include a wide range of classical\, gospel\, jazz\, popular music\, and a deep commitment to the commissioning of new compositions and arrangements. The ensemble has committed much of its vast recording catalog to these commissions\, garnering GRAMMY® Awards for its recording of Sir John Tavener’s “Lamentations & Praises\,” and the ambitious collection of commissioned works entitled “Colors of Love.” Named for the “clear-singing” rooster in Geoffrey Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales\, Chanticleer continues to maintain ambitious programming in its hometown of San Francisco\, including a large education and outreach program that recently reached over 8\,000 people. \nJoin The Carlos Moseley Series for our 2022-23 season and experience world-renowned musicians at our Converse University Spartanburg campus. This season\, we welcome acclaimed guest artists Wael Farouk\, piano\, Ying Quartet\, Chanticleer\, and REBEL Baroque ensemble.
