Pope studied under the artist Nick Cave for 12 years\, was a teaching artist at the Museum of Contemporary Art for 7 years\, and has worked in/with multiple community-based organizations throughout Chicago since 2003. She continues her involvement with youth in the city seeking to offer situations that instigate new questions\, new language\, towards a safer and more just future. \nartist websiteABOUT THE LUCKY PENNY\nThe Lucky Penny creates and presents contemporary performance events in Atlanta\, Georgia.

SUMMARY:Flux Exchange: Architectural Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:WITH ALEXANDRE ARRECHEA AND MICHAEL KAHN\nJoin Flux Exchange visiting artist Alexandre Arrechea and ArtATL’s architectural contributor Michael Kahn for a walking tour of Downtown Atlanta. \nArrechea has been incorporating imagery of architecture in his sculpture and drawings for over two decades\, both as a solo artist and in the Cuban artist collective Los Carpinteros. Kahn\, an architect\, lecturer\, journalist\, and native of Atlanta\, writes and lectures on the confluence of urban planning and architectural history. \nTogether\, the two will discuss the complex past\, present\, and future of Atlanta’s architecture\, as represented in buildings both preserved and lost\, and discuss how these intersections can inspire concepts in contemporary art and culture. \nTour highlights include: the Atlanta Central Library\, the Hurt Building\, the Candler Building\, the Ellis Hotel\, the Healey Building\, the Flatiron Building\, the Olympia Building\, the Marriott Marquis\, and the Equitable Building. Tour begins and ends at the Hyatt Regency Atlanta\, 265 Peachtree Street NE.

SUMMARY:Hank Willis Thomas Lecture
