Project Row Houses (PRH) proudly presents the second iteration of our Southern Survey Biennial with a Round Opening and Community Market.
This survey of recent works created by contemporary visual artists living and working in “The South” will feature installations in PRH’s historic row houses from Rabeeha Adnan (Richmond, VA), Nic[o] Brierre Aziz (New Orleans, LA), Violette Bule (Houston, TX), Carolina Rodriguez Meyer (Miami, FL), Amy Schissel (Miami, FL), Martin Wannam (Durham, NC), and Jamire Williams (Houston, TX).
Round 57 opens on Saturday, October 12, 2024 at 3pm with porch talks from each artist. After the brief introductions from the artists, PRH will present a $25,000 prize to one participating artist selected by Guest Juror Kimberli Gant, Curator of Modern & Contemporary Art, Brooklyn Museum of Art.
The Art Houses will remain open to explore and experience from 4 to 7pm while artists and creative entrepreneurs take part in a community market along Holman Street, and neighbors and visitors enjoy a festive, family-friendly afternoon on the row. Nooney and the Zydeco Floaters will play in the courtyard behind the row houses.
PRH Executive Director Danielle Burns Wilson launched PRH’s Southern Survey Biennial in 2022 to highlight the collective creativity of southerners and build a greater number of viable opportunities for artists living and working in the Southern region, specifically residents of Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia. Curator and Programming Manager Cydney Pickens organized Round 57.
Round 57 will remain on view Wednesdays-Sundays until Sunday, February 9, 2024.
