  • Pinkney Herbert: Artist Talk

    Crosstown Arts Galleries 1350 Concourse Ave., Suite 280, Memphis, TN, United States

    Artist Pinkney Herbert will discuss his work in Distilled: The Narrative Transformed, which will be on view at Crosstown Arts May 26-July 4.

    This 30-year survey of Herbert’s work tracks his transition from narrative beginnings through the development of a personal abstract vocabulary that both thrills and seduces the viewer.

  • Screening of The Departure

    Indie Memphis presents a screening of The Departure.

    Ittetsu Nemoto, a former punk-turned-Buddhist-priest in Japan, has made a career out of helping suicidal people find reasons to live. But this work has come increasingly at the cost of his own family and health, as he refuses to draw lines between his patients and himself. THE DEPARTURE captures Nemoto at a crossroads, when his growing self-destructive tendencies lead him to confront the same question his patients ask him: what makes life worth living?

    Featuring Q&A with Mike LaBonte (Memphis Crisis Center) and Joann Self Selvidge (Memphis Women in Film).

    The key to Pecha Kucha is the 20×20 format: all presenters show 20 slides for 20 seconds each, making each presentation concise and dynamic. If you’re wondering what “Pecha Kucha” means, it draws its name from the Japanese term for the sound of “chit chat.”
