More The Center for Maine Contemporary Art presents the first Maine solo exhibition of Kyle Downs ROCKLAND, ME.- The Center for Maine Contemporary Art is presenting the first Maine solo exhibition of Kyle Downs, From the Collection of Lord Red.

Downs relishes the heightened state of intentional searching and the discovery of diamonds in the rough, reframing collecting as an act of material obsession to a more wholesome meditation on the quality of attention and honoring ...

More Mansur Nurullah's first solo exhibition at Hosfelt Gallery opens in San Francisco SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- In his first solo exhibition at Hosfelt Gallery, San Francisco-based Mansur Nurullah presents intricately stitched, wall-hanging sculptures that build on the legacies of African-American quilt makers to trace personal and community histories.
