Plains Art Museum’s Curatorial dept. will offer an engaging tour/discussion on Alfred Conteh’s Malik and Marquis, newly reinstalled within the context of Don Powell’s A Little Grey for Colorexhibition. This promises to be an experience layered with dialogues between Conteh’s evocative painting and Powell’s architectural legacy, creating an exhibition-within-an-exhibition that examines themes of space, structural dynamics, and the role of architecture shaping the way we experience space. Reflecting on how Conteh’s work transforms the gallery into a contemplative space, this discussion highlights the intersection of art, architecture, and dynamic structural inequalities occurring within the built environment. Don’t miss this opportunity to investigate the dynamic interplay of these powerful works.
