Avisca Fine Art Gallery is pleased to present “Leaving Mississippi”, a solo exhibition of mixed media paintings and collages by Atlanta-based artist, Najee Dorsey. The exhibition will open during First Friday Marietta Art Walk on Friday September 2, from 5-9 p.m. The works will be on view through September 9.
Dorsey’s “Leaving Mississippi” series reflect a personal journey and an engagement with a history as metaphor. Dorsey’s Mississippi County, Arkansas roots emerge in his work as he pays homage to the cast of colorful characters, landmarks, and conditions of Southern life by celebrating the humanity of the Southerner while critiquing aspects of the Southern mentality.
Come join the fun at Avisca Fine Art Gallery. Meet the artist and other art lovers and enjoy art, music, refreshment and our ever popular “Mo’ Mint Mojito”.
