Dallas Center for Photography will present an exhibition titled Memory is a Verb: Exploring Time and Transience, curated by Emily Edwards.

“Memory is a Verb: Exploring Time and Transience presents the work of eleven female photographers investigating time, transience, and loss. Collectively they celebrate our shared humanity, profoundly influencing how we see ourselves and others. After these past few years of uncertainty and grief, this exhibition maps a way forward toward communal understanding and healing.” – Emily Edwards.

This event will mark the first time all eleven artists have come together in person. The artists will host brief presentations of their installations during the reception, along with exhibition catalog and independent artist book signings and sales.

Nicodim Gallery and the Green Family Art Foundation are excited to present MATERNITY LEAVE: NONE OF WOMEN BORN, a pop-up exhibition located in the lobby of Atelier Apartments in the Arts District. Advances in technology and genetic engineering have made inevitable a future in which it is possible for the conception, gestation, and birth of human life to be subcontracted away from actual humans. MATERNITY LEAVE: NONE OF WOMEN BORN questions what it means to be of women born, when life actually begins, and explores structures that might assume the role of “mother” in a society where birth is outsourced or inorganic. The exhibition features the artists Ángeles Agrela, Isabelle Albuquerque, Dominique Fung, Vivian Greven, Loie Hollowell, Devin B. Johnson, Sung Hwa Kim, Alicja Kwade, Tali Lennox, Jessie Makinson, Tania Marmolejo, Lucy McRae, Nicolette Mishkan, Wangetchi Mutu, Alice Neel, Agnieszka Nienartowicz, Kathy Ruttenberg, Nadia Waheed, Ambera Wellmann, and more. Join us for the opening from 5-7 PM on Tuesday, April 18. The exhibition runs through April 23.

No RSVP required. The space is best accessed from Flora Street.

This rich panel discussion will pull on the experience and knowledge of renowned photographers, artists, and educators as they discuss women in photography in the context of history, the present day, and the future.

Cerámica Suro: A Story of Collaboration, Production, and Collecting in the Contemporary Arts will be the first comprehensive American presentation of the studio’s influence on contemporary art vis-à-vis the collection amassed by José Noé Suro and his wife Marcela. Selections from this collection, which is made up of over 700 pieces, are curated into the exhibition by executive director and chief curator of Guadalajara’s Zapopan Art Museum (MAZ), Viviana Kuri, who also organized the previous iteration of the exhibition at MAZ.

For his solo exhibition This Must be the Place, Eduardo Sarabia’s multidisciplinary work is expressed in the setting of a home in which visitors are invited to walk through and witness the varied elements of the artist’s practice – outsized, hand-painted blue and white talavera-style ceramics made in collaboration with Cerámica Suro; paintings that serve as metaphorical windows in the installation space; handmade ceramic kitchenware; and a site-specific mural of vine motifs, which are a signature of Sarabia’s work– in a setting that welcomes gathering, conversation, and camaraderie.
