Mid-America Arts Alliance has commissioned two new poems from six regional artists, as selected/curated by noted poet Quraysh Ali Lansana and the Tulsa based Tri-City Collective. Each poet has been asked to write about/on the forgotten stories of places, people, or histories from their states/regions. The poets’ words and voices will be presented through our outdoor audio system, and will begin August 1 with work by ire’ne lara silva. The poems will run audibly from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., the first to the last day of each month from August 2021 through January 2022 at Mid-America Arts Alliance, located at 2018 Baltimore.

Goethe Pop Up Kansas City presents the multimedia installation, Ankersentrum (surviving in the ruinous ruin) by Natascha Sadr Haghighian.

First exhibited at the Venice Biennale’s German Pavilion in 2019, Ankersentrum consisted of a large-scale installation that combined architectural elements, sound and sculpture to create an immersive experience for visitors. The sound composition, tribute to whistle, was presented as the centerpiece of the installation in Venice and can now be experienced at the Goethe Pop Up Kansas City (and for the first time in the USA!). It will be accompanied by three videos, which Haghighian produced in anticipation of the opening of the Venice Biennale.

Ankersentrum (surviving in the ruinous ruin) is a project by Natascha Sadr Haghighian in collaboration with Susanne Sachsse, Jessica Ekomane, Maurice Louca, DJ Marfox, Jako Maron, Tisha Mukarji, Elnaz Seyedi, Nicholas Bussmann, Kooperative für Darstellungspolitik, Maziyar Pahlevan, Sina Ahmadi, Jasper Kettner, and many others. Curated by Franciska Zólyom.

In recent years there has been an increase in the creation and acceptance of figurative art and that includes, promisingly, the acceptance of such work in the high-end market. But why do artist and collectors like art of the Human Form? Simply put it is because art is a means of communicating human experiences, therefore human bodies are naturally depicted. The figurative form can be used as the ideal medium to convey a spectrum of ideas with which the viewer can resonate. The human figure has always been a common subject of visual art, “it forces the viewer to engage the artwork and enables the artist to express an entire range of ideas from the subtle to the intense”. In the history of art the human figure bears, in different ways and through different periods in time, a huge significance, being the most direct means by which art can address the human condition. We take pride in the fact that we are champions of figurative art and as this 13th annual exhibition shows we are not alone in this belief.

The Contemporary Figurative show seeks to showcase the best artwork, selected Nationally and Internationally.
