This exhibition celebrates and commemorates Material Art Space’s inspiring and longstanding impact on the Memphis art community and its unprecedented run as an alternative space. In May of 2013, Material celebrated its 100th exhibition and in August it will host its final show as Hamlett Dobbins leaves for an eleven-month stay at the American Academy in Rome. The exhibition at Crosstown Arts will feature work by over 50 artists who exhibited at Material from 2004 through 2013.
Among the many artists who will contribute to the exhibition are Greely Myatt, Mark Nowell, Melissa Dunn, Mel Spillman, Bobby Spillman, Rebecca Robert, Elizabeth Alley, Clayton Colvin, Kathleen Perniciaro, Douglas Degges, Dwayne Butcher, Tad Lauritzen Wright, Adam Farmer, Susan Maakestad, Jonathan Auger, James Inscho, Clare Torina, Jamie Harmon, Holly Cole, Pete Schulte, Georgia Creson, Alex Harrison, Jordan Martins, Maggie Kleinpeter, Jeana Baungardner, Joel Parsons, Mary Jo Karimnia, and Joshua Huyser.
