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.

SUMMARY:Nikki Hill w/ Gem Series Opener The Café Unit
DESCRIPTION:Nikki Hill is sweet seduction\, sweeter threat\, and smoldering energy. An original force in American music\, she is tender and tough\, flamboyant\, witty and dangerous. To put it plainly\, Hill brings daggers back to the stage and studio. Overlapping soulful\, sensual and bold vocal tones with powerful chrome-plated riffs and swagger\, her voice finds a home in it – a soul singing\, bar rocking\, roots revivalist\, that writes with frank self-reflection at a dancing tempo. \nHailing from Durham\, North Carolina\, Nikki Hill enjoyed R&B\, soul\, pop and hip hop at home. In addition\, she sang gospel in the church choir from childhood through her early teenage years. Gradually\, she developed her ears for garage rock\, rock n’ roll\, blues and roots\, while also picking up influence from living along the legendary Mississippi River – in St. Louis\, Missouri\, New Orleans\, Louisiana\, and currently Memphis\, Tennessee. In Nikki’s mind\, a fertile mix of all the different types of music she had heard arose\, and gradually these merged into something quite special\, as she found her own voice\, which the world was gradually introduced to on her many constant tours\, where she took more and more audiences by storm with her distinctive vocals and energetic stage performance. \nAfter self-releasing and producing her debut album\, Here’s Nikki Hill\, her musical contributions continued\, with her song “Struttin’” released on Deke Dickerson and The Bo-Keys Soul Meets Country EP\, produced by Scott Bomar in Memphis\, TN. The momentum continued through the release of her second album\, Heavy Hearts Hard Fists\, recorded at Fort Horton Studios in Wyldwood\, TX. The acclaimed album was accompanied by a worldwide tour in the US\, Europe\, Australia\, India and Morocco\, and over 30 festivals\, including Montreux Jazz Festival\, Monterey Jazz Festival\, and Byron Bay Blues Festival\, receiving praise for uplifting the new songs with an erupting live performance. \n“Think Tina Turner fronting AC/DC and you’ll have half of the picture. She’s a machine…you’ve got no excuse if you miss seeing her… Nikki Hill is a revelation\, her band masters of rocket-fueled bluesy swing\, her voice the beacon which calls you home… a vocal powerhouse who don’t mess around.” (Rolling Stone). \nHill’s current touring band is Matt Hill (guitar)\, Laura Chavez (guitar)\, Nick Gaitan (bass)\, and Marty Dodson (drums). On Nikki Hill’s third self-produced and self-released album\, Feline Roots\, she lets her soul rip. Nikki and her band take a muscular groove — celebrating and wailing over love\, transgressions\, the hard times\, and wild freedom — and inject it with timeless effect\, giving Nikki a foundation on which to build. \nIt’s her version of rock n’ roll that can only come from her stories. Nikki Hill has never been afraid to take the road less traveled\, and it’s clear with “Feline Roots” that she’s living every word. \n \nProjects Unlimited Gem Series Opener: The Café Unit\nThe Café Unit is a group of “Seasoned Players” who share a common vision\, influence\, and ear for live performance and music. The Café Unit is laid back AND The Café Unit is upbeat. Ideal for any Dancing\, Good Listening\, Party environment\, Venues Large and Small\, the Band incorporates songs and styles from a variety of genres and eras. Blues\, Rock\, Country\, from Golden Oldies to Present Day Music\, Nothing Is Off The Table

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.

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.
