ART: ‘Delta Voices’

The first of three video segments from “Delta Voices: Artists of the Mid-South,” highlighting the work of sculptor Renata Cassiano Alvarez and painters Vaughn Davis Jr. and John Isiah Walton, will be shown online Wednesday through the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts YouTube channel, youtube.com/c/arkansasmuseumoffinearts. Subsequent “episodes” will premiere on August 31st and September 7th. The virtual exhibition will be open indefinitely.

The videos represent the 2022 edition of the museum’s “Delta Exhibition,” which since 1958 has “increased the visibility of the region’s artists and reflects changes in the cultural landscape,” according to a press release. It has evolved from an annual juried exhibition at the Arkansas Arts Center to this collaborative virtual series during the institution’s transformation at the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts. It is in collaboration with regional museums: the works of Alvarez and Davis with the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis; Walton’s with the Ogden Museum of Southern Art in New Orleans. It will become a three-year exhibition once the museum reopens, now scheduled for spring 2023.

The Arkansas Cinema Society is hosting a screening of “Delta Voices: Artists of the Mid-South” and a panel discussion with the artists, Aug. 31 at the Ron Robinson Theatre, 100 River Market Ave., Little Rock. Doors open at 6pm for a pre-screening reception. Admission is free; reservations are recommended. Visit arkansascinemasociety.org.
