AEIVA Presents Material Resonance
In 2014, UAB’s Abroms-Engel Institute for the Visual Arts opened its doors to the public and forever changed the landscape of contemporary art in Birmingham, Alabama. AEIVA’s inaugural exhibition Material Evidence, curated by Gail Andrews, Director Emerita of the Birmingham Museum of Art culled from the impressive private collections of some of Birmingham’s most dedicated art collectors and enthusiasts. 10 years later, AEIVA is proud to present Material Resonance, a large-scale survey of more than 60 artists representing many of AEIVA’s most iconic exhibitions from the past decade, in addition to a glimpse into future exhibitions. Featured artists include Willie Cole, Titus Kaphar, Quentin Morris, Leslie Wayne, Erin Mitchell, Tameca Cole, and many more.
The May 31 opening reception will feature a gallery walkthrough with John Fields, The Lydia Cheney and Jim Sokol Endowed Director of AEIVA, AEIVA Curator Hannah Spears, and select artists featured in the exhibition.
