SUMMARY:The Quiet World of Edward Hopper
DESCRIPTION:June 15–September 8\, 2024 \n\nFew artists have been able to convey a distinct vision of the world as directly as Edward Hopper (American\, 1882–1967). With great clarity\, Hopper expressed a deeply personal response to modern life with his enigmatic depictions of urban and rural environments. The everyday\, even mundane slices of life and ordinary subjects regularly indicate a psychological state of mind\, most often suggesting a sense of isolation or loneliness. He rejected the influences of European modernism to work in a realistic\, representational style\, and create a uniquely American point of view that expresses his response to living in the twentieth century. \nThe Quiet World of Edward Hopper\, an exclusive exhibition to the DAI\, will feature the holdings from the DAI collection\, which include a drawing\, etchings\, watercolor figure studies from his early years as an illustrator visiting Europe\, along with the celebrated painting High Noon\, 1949. The exhibition will also have key loans from other museums and private collections.

SUMMARY:Riveting: Women Artists from the Sara M. and Michelle Vance Waddell Collection
DESCRIPTION:June 22–September 8\, 2024 \n\nRiveting presents extraordinary art by contemporary women artists drawn from the major\, private collection of Sara M. and Michelle Vance Waddell. This bold exhibition expresses the collector’s personal interest in finding emergent artistic voices and powerful artistic statements that speak to prominent social issues of the day\, including those relating to LGBTQ+ communities and reproductive rights. All major media are included: paintings\, sculptures\, works on paper\, photographs and textiles\, and themes range from humorous and irreverent to thought-provoking. \nInternationally recognized artists include Cindy Sherman\, Kiki Smith\, Ana Mendieta and many others\, featured alongside under-recognized and local artists. One of the highlights will be Carolee Shneemann’s Interior Scroll (1974/75)\, a groundbreaking achievement of feminist art that remains relevant and controversial to this day.

DESCRIPTION:Dayton Metro Library welcomes Michael D. Tubbs as its next Social Justice Speaker in The Deeper the Roots – Striving for Universal Basic Income (UBI) on Thursday\, September 5\, in the Main Library’s Eichelberger Forum\, from 6-7:30 pm. \n  \nTubbs will discuss the importance of UBI\, what it is\, how it can benefit the U.S.\, and what we can do to implement it.
