SUMMARY:Spring Exhibitions
DESCRIPTION:Crosstown Arts presents three exhibitions: Shades of Heritage by Wiley Henry\, A Rabbit With a Gun by Lawrence Matthews\, and Club Walrus\, Fluvial Effluvia\, and Know No Now by Karl Erickson. The exhibitions bring together three distinct artistic practices that explore themes of heritage\, perception\, identity\, and humanity’s relationship with the wider world. \nOn view through June 7\, 2026\, the exhibitions highlight artists working across painting\, drawing\, animation\, installation\, and multimedia forms\, each approaching the act of representation from a unique perspective. \n\nShades of Heritage — Wiley Henry\nIn Shades of Heritage\, Wiley Henry presents a selection of paintings and drawings centered on the human figure and the formative influence of personal history. Through traditional realist techniques\, Henry explores how heritage shapes identity and artistic expression. \nThe exhibition reflects Henry’s belief that his work emerges directly from the experiences that shaped him. As the artist explains\, the works collectively “reflect my identity\, artistic perspective\, and creative approach\,” emphasizing the role heritage plays in both subject and meaning. \nHenry’s fascination with the human form allows him to depict figures with ease and emotional immediacy. He describes this connection as inseparable from his upbringing and the environment that formed him: “I am who I am because of my heritage.” \nAlthough the exhibition is not explicitly religious\, Henry notes that spiritual themes often surface within his work. In several pieces he depicts gatherings of Black angels and children in celestial settings\, continuing a long tradition of artists who have portrayed angelic figures throughout history. \nHenry is a Memphis-born artist whose work has been widely reproduced and commissioned for portraits of prominent individuals\, including judges\, actors\, politicians\, and community leaders. A graduate of the Memphis College of Art\, he has built a career rooted in traditional realism and a distinctive ability to capture what he describes as the “essence of the human spirit.” \n\nA Rabbit With a Gun — Lawrence Matthews\nLawrence Matthews’ A Rabbit With a Gun explores the unsettling feeling that reality itself may be unstable. The exhibition grew out of the artist’s immersion in media and ideas about altered perception and the uncanny nature of everyday life. \nMatthews describes his recent years as a period spent grappling with the feeling that something about existence feels “off”—that space\, time\, and social interactions sometimes behave in strange or unpredictable ways. “People are confusing\,” he writes. “Time moves in ways which it shouldn’t. Months zoom past in hours.” \nIn this body of work\, Matthews imagines what might happen if one actively pushes against those familiar routines and expectations. He describes venturing “further and further into spaces off the path—in the world\, in my past and in my own head.” The works become attempts to share those moments when perception shifts and the boundaries of reality feel fluid. \nBorn and raised in a neighborhood between the Mississippi border\, Memphis city limits\, and the surrounding suburbs\, Matthews’ life experience informs a sensibility closely aligned with Southern Gothic traditions. His work draws from the emotional tension of those environments—places both overlooked and deeply personal. \nMatthews holds a BFA from the University of Memphis and has spent more than a decade exhibiting\, performing\, and collaborating with arts organizations. His multidisciplinary practice blends visual art\, performance\, and narrative into works that reflect the intertwined experiences of memory\, place\, and identity. \n\nClub Walrus\, Fluvial Effluvia\, and Know No Now — Karl Erickson\nKarl Erickson’s exhibition combines digital animation\, installation\, and audio-visual experimentation to explore a world in which humans are only one of many active participants. His work asks viewers to consider the agency of the “other-than-human” entities that share the planet with us. \nFor Erickson\, this includes plants\, animals\, machines\, trash\, electricity\, and the microscopic systems that underpin life itself. The complex tools he uses—such as photogrammetry\, modular synthesizers\, and 3D animation—mirror the complexity of ecological systems. \nWithin these animated environments\, meaning becomes unstable and identities shift. Erickson intentionally disrupts conventional structures of logic and interpretation\, allowing nonsense\, humor\, and absurdity to proliferate. This approach challenges what he describes as the “authoritative\, single-minded way of understanding the world” that privileges strict rational order above all else. \nMany of Erickson’s digital puppets are built from discarded materials\, emphasizing the interconnected assemblage of things that make up the world. By animating these objects and giving them uncanny life\, he invites viewers to reconsider their relationship with the physical environment. \nErickson’s work has been presented widely in galleries\, museums\, film festivals\, and performance spaces. His animation Know No Now has screened internationally and received the Best Animation award at the Chroma Art Film Festival in Miami. \n\nOn View at Crosstown Arts\nTogether\, these three exhibitions offer distinct but complementary perspectives on the human experience—from the shaping power of heritage\, to the instability of perception\, to the broader networks of life and matter that surround us. \nThe exhibitions remain on view at Crosstown Arts in Memphis through June 7\, 2026.

SUMMARY:An Intimate Night with Keia
DESCRIPTION:The Green Room at Crosstown Arts\nTue\, May 19\, 7:30 PM\n\n\n\nFrom $30.39The price you’ll pay. No surprises later.\nBuy now\n\n\nAbout\n\n\nA night of live music with Strings! Experience Keia in a way you never have before\, an intimate setting with some of your favorite songs. This is a night you don’t want to miss! Keia was born in San Antonio\, TX but grew up all over the world in a Military family. But it was the move to Memphis that helped her establish her sound and performance style. She has performed with some of the best talent Memphis has to offer\, while also building relationships with notable national names like The Bar-Kays and David Porter of Stax Records. \nIn College\, Keia made history by being crowned only the third Black Miss ASU (Arkansas State University). The same university that Miss America 1990 Debbye Turner attended\, and was crowned the first Black Miss ASU. Keia went on to the Miss Arkansas Pageant\, where she was crowned Miss Congeniality\, a name that stuck with her for years to come. She graduated with a degree in Communications emphasis Radio/Television Broadcasting and a minor in Political Science. But the arts kept calling her name. \nYears later\, it was American Idol that served as the true catalyst for Keia to recognize who she was as an Artist and what she wanted to do with her career. The talent competition led her to Hollywood where “Miss Congeniality” wowed the judges for two seasons. Her audition performance of Celine Dion’s vocally rigorous “My Heart Will Go On” prompted guest judge and musical role model \nMary J. Blige to simply declare: “She can sing!” Keia later went on to compete on Season 4 of “The Voice” as well\, but wasn’t chosen for a team. Her journey hasn’t been without its disappointments and de-railings. But she can’t stop singing.

SUMMARY:Crosstown Arts Film Series: No Country for Old Men
DESCRIPTION:January 29\, 2026\nNo Country for Old Men (2007\, dir. Joel & Ethan Coen)\nThe Coen Brothers’ Academy Award–winning adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s novel stands as one of the most unsettling American films of the 21st century. Set against the bleak landscapes of West Texas\, No Country for Old Men follows intersecting lives pulled into a spiral of violence after a drug deal goes wrong\, along with the unstoppable force that follows in its wake. \nAnchored by Javier Bardem’s chilling portrayal of Anton Chigurh\, the film explores fate\, chance\, and moral erosion with an almost mythic inevitability. Sparse dialogue\, oppressive silence\, and sudden brutality create an atmosphere of constant dread. Sheriff Ed Tom Bell’s weary reflections frame the film as a lament for a world that no longer makes sense to those who once believed they understood it. Grim\, precise\, and hauntingly modern\, No Country for Old Men demands the focus and scale of a theatrical viewing.
