Organized by the Carter, Classically Trained: The Gentlings and Music explores Scott and Stuart Gentling’s artistic engagement with the Age of Enlightenment, and features over 20 artworks by the Gentlings, including paintings, drawings, and music inspired by the intellectual and cultural ideals of this era.
Beverly Pepper’s Curvae in Curvae is the fourth installation of the Carter’s outdoor sculpture initiative, a program launched in 2022 to activate the Museum’s grounds.
Jean Shin is the next contemporary artist to transform the Museum’s first floor sloping gallery with a new site-specific commission. For her installation at the Carter, Shin will create a textile-based portrait of the Museum, through clothing items donated by the Carter’s employees and shape these elements into a large-scale wall mural with immersive hanging elements that will activate the gallery walls and ceiling.
The Carter houses one of the great collections of American art, from historical landscapes captured on canvas to city streets seen through the lens of a camera. We’re regularly changing out these works, so each time you visit, you know you’ll encounter something you haven’t seen before.
