Join us for a discussion celebrating the artistic legacy and impact of Guyanese-born Donald Locke (1930–2010), one of Atlanta’s most influential visual artists. This event brings together contemporary artists Paul Stephen Benjamin, Kevin Cole, Shanequa Gay, Masud Olufani, and Ato Ribeiro to examine Locke’s impact on their art practice and the ways in which his work continues to have enduring relevance for a new generation of artists. The conversation will be moderated by artist, scholar, and curator Kevin Sipp.

Donald Locke: Nexus, currently on view at Atlanta Contemporary, is curated by Grace Aneiza Ali with support from Brenda Locke, the Locke Family, and the Estate of Donald Locke.
