Guest curator Keith Wilson will lead a discussion detailing “The Image Moves: New Film and Video Work by Athens Artists,” an exhibition that elevates the visibility of local artists who experiment with the time-based mediums of film and video within their creative practices. Participating artists include AJ Aremu, Jaime Bull, Shawn Campbell, CC Calloway, Drew Gebhardt, Selia Hooten, Vivian Liddell and Katz Tepper. Bonded by their non-narrative and experimental approaches, the videos range greatly in subject matter and are distinct in tone and style. As the works screen simultaneously along the walls, the gallery glows with windows into different universes. “The work in the exhibit leans into the fact that both film and video are made of a series of still images that coalesce into fleeting and fluid fragments of expression, emotion, connection and wonder,” says Wilson in his curator statement. The exhibition, which has been on view since early October, will close on Saturday, Jan. 13.
