  • Shards of Color and Other Broken Things

    Shards of Color and Other Broken Things is an exploration of color and the way it's manipulated by image and perspective.

    Joy Murray works in a narrative style and uses text in her paintings. She uses many kinds of paper, watercolor, acrylic, and collage. She explores concepts of transformation and the intersection of human life and the natural world. This show will feature many of her pieces focused on disability and sacred transformation of the body.

    TheOuterCircle travels all over the world to expand his vision. His abstract paintings voice subconscious ideas. His pieces have multiple layers and create texture within color. In addition to paint brushes, he uses everything from his fingers to credit cards to achieve a chaotic balance between color and texture.

  • Sound Kulture: Marco Alexander in The Green Room

    Crosstown Arts, The Green Room 1350 Concourse Ave., Suite 280, Memphis, TN, United States

    Join us in The Green Room at Crosstown Arts for a performance by pop/R&B singer-songwriter Marco Alexander.

    Marco Alexander is an American pop/R&B singer-songwriter and all-around artist. Born in Memphis, TN, Marco began his study of music at a young age. Marco grew up watching his mother lead the church choir (while sitting next to the organ player so he wouldn’t get into trouble).

    Growing up in a musical family granted Marco the opportunity to travel and study sounds that were unfamiliar to him, whether it was the sound of beating on pots and pans or listening to the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra. A versatile musician, Marco has performed with the National Festival Symphony at Carnegie Hall and in musical theater productions, such as Thoroughly Modern Millie, Aida, and Dreamgirls.

Donald Sutherland (MASH,  The Kentucky Fried Movie) plays the title character Klute, a detective brought in by a chemical company executive to find out what really happened. Co-starring Roy Scheider (Jaws, Jaws II) as Jane Fonda’s pimp. Also co-starring the super-fun and sleazy NYC of the 1970s. Klute won a lot of Oscars, but don’t hold that against it. IT IS A GREAT MOVIE ANYWAY!!
