The electrifying return of Art Party
(on hiatus since 2002) will include the opening of exhibitions by the Los Angeles-based collaborative team Fallen Fruit (David Burns and Austin Young), whose installation of accumulated objects will use fruit as the filter through which they’ll examine the distinct context of the south, plus works by Atlanta-based artist Steven L. Anderson, whose drawings and sculptures explore the nature of energy, and the energy of Nature. Audiences will have access to the 14 artists who participate in ACAC’s
Studio Artist Program, and a range of music, film, dance, and performance featuring collaborations with Atlanta’s most talented and inspiring individuals and groups. Special pop-up experiences focusing on food, drink, and interactivity will play a major role in the evening’s offerings.

“Rather than simply honoring our history and past celebrations, this event will galvanize the city’s contemporary art audiences,” said Stuart Horodner, ACAC’s Artistic Director. “Our resurrected Art Party will up the ante on Atlanta’s interdisciplinary events. We want to conceptually link the Center’s established curatorial rigor and significance with a night of outrageous fun, fundraising and community exhilaration.”
Atlanta Contemporary Art Center is a non-profit, non-collecting institution dedicated to the creation, presentation, and advancement of contemporary art by emerging and established artists. ACAC creates a diverse cultural landscape for artists, arts professionals, and the art-interested public through its exhibitions, educational programming, and studio artist program.
