James meyer . Your Kindness Is A Weakness. 2023 installation, aluminum ladder, text, marigolds, red phone with monologues. The text was small enough so that you couldn’t read it, some people couldn’t help but climb the ladder- this person Lauren Fensterstock read the text allowed once she got up there -

Your kindness is a weakness- your kindness is a weakness, your kindness can be perceived as a weakness… this was told to me by my bunkie in prison, warning me that people would perceive me as weak because I was kind and it was ok as long as I knew that was what they thought and prepare for it.

Third Thursday events and exhibitions for March 21

The next Third Thursday — the monthly evening of art in Athens, Georgia — is scheduled for Thursday, March 21, from 6 to 9 p.m. All exhibitions are free and open to the public.

This Third Thursday will offer four events in addition to the exhibitions. One of the venues will be closed.

Georgia Museum of Art, University of Georgia

Teen Studio: A Meeting of Art and Science, 5:30 – 8:30 p.m. — Teens ages 13–18 are invited to this free studio-based workshop led by local artist and educator Kristen Bach and inspired by the exhibition “Out of the Darkness.” Please email [email protected] or call 706.542.8863 to reserve a spot.

Yoga in the Galleries, 6 p.m. — Join us for a yoga class surrounded by works of art in the galleries. Led by instructors from Five Points Yoga, this program is free and open to both beginner and experienced yogis. Space is limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis; tickets are available at the front desk starting at 5:15 p.m. Yoga mats provided.

On view:

“Life, Love and Marriage Chests in Renaissance Italy” — The exhibition comprises around 45 Renaissance works of art related to its theme and representative of life and social customs in Renaissance Italy.

“Stony the Road We Trod” — This exhibition features works by African American artists in the museum’s permanent collection and by this year’s Larry D. and Brenda A. Thompson Award Winner, Leo Twiggs. 

“Out of the Darkness: Light in the Depths of the Sea of Cortez” — Artist Rebecca Rutstein uses UGA marine sciences professor Samantha Joye's research to create an interactive sculptural installation and several large paintings. 

Permanent Collection — Thirteen galleries house a large portion of the Georgia Museum of Art's collection, including many of the 100 American paintings that made up Alfred Heber Holbrook's founding gift.

Lamar Dodd School of Art Galleries, University of Georgia

We will be exhibiting solo exhibitions by Siavash Tohidi, Sanaz Nouri, as well as a group exhibition featuring BFA students in Scientific Illustration. We're especially thrilled to be debuting a suite of works by Lauren Fensterstock that was created while in residence as the 2018–19 Dodd Chair. 

Lyndon House Arts Center

3Thurs Gallery Talk by artist Abigail West, 6 p.m. —In Plastic Bodies, Abigail West makes new materials out of hard-to-recycle consumer objects like potato chip bags and plastic film, and uses these in performances in rivers. These objects were made to be single-use, predestined to become either litter or part of the landfill. Through this work, West points out that they have value far beyond their manufactured use. She believes that art and artists can provoke people in intimate ways to think differently about critical social and environmental issues.

On view: 

“The 44th Juried Exhibition” — Featuring works by 130 artists selected by guest juror, Lauren Haynes, Contemporary Curator at the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art.

ATHICA: Athens Institute for Contemporary Art

Closed for installation of the March 25 exhibition, “New Gods | Old Gods: The Work of Balinese Artist, Musician and Activist Made ‘Bayak’ Muliana”

Ciné

Opening Exhibition: 6 – 8 p.m.

On view:

“Painting by Tobiah Cole” — Tobiah Cole’s work is an exploration of improvisational mark making. Often working with a wandering line Tobiah has been painting forms that evolve and deconstruct in a landscape of paint that has no firm boundaries. It's his intention to paint from a place of not knowing and to allow images to slowly emerge on their own.

Hotel Indigo, Athens

“You Are Here” — Works by Amanda Jane Burk, Eli Saragoussi, Chasity Williams and Tae Lee

“Taylor Shaw” — A new installation in the GlassCube, featuring fantastic neon Athens mini-golf mural fun. 

The Classic Center

“Checkerboard Checkered Floor” — An exhibition exploring pattern play is on view in Classic Gallery I. Featuring the boxy abstractions of Cal Clements, the black-and-white patterned interiors of Hanna Friedlander, Jess Machacek’s ombré assemblages, Jared Brown’s bouncy, poppy paintings and Courtney McCracken’s marbled geometric combination collages.

“Dan Smith” — A solo exhibition in Classic Gallery II of Moby Dicks and large paintings.

--

Third Thursday was established in 2012 to encourage attendance at Athens’ established art venues through coordination and co-promotion by the organizing entities. Rack cards promoting Third Thursday and visual art in Athens are available upon request. This schedule and venue locations and regular hours can be found at 3thurs.org.

Sculptor Lauren Fensterstock crafts dark, supernatural worlds of monochromatic nature scenes, often fashioned in all black, that contain a deep sense of tranquility and serenity.
