Exhibition Opening: Kahlil Robert Irving, 40acres (of TREEs| to a 40ozBricks)

Opening and Artist Talk
Irving will be in conversation with Lauren Haynes, Executive Director of Atlanta Contemporary beginning at 5:15pm

AEIVA is pleased to present an exhibition of new and recent works by St. Louis-based artist, Kahlil Robert Irving. Following his participation in the critically-acclaimed MONUMENTS exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, Irving will show a series of new, large-format paintings and amassment sculptures that confront the legacy of historical broken promises and political mixed messaging in his hometown and across the US. Through work combining digital imagery and references to his surrounding environment, Irving’s exhibition stages an encounter between the web of media and the web of materials, producing a record of experience in which the street and the screen are equally present forums for public life.
