Art Center Sarasota’s 2023-2024 exhibition season continues with four exhibits, January 25-March 2. In “Looking for Home,” Brian Jones presents a new body of photographic work that explores the layered personality of the city of Sarasota. (Artist Talk is Thursday, February 8, 5:30-7 p.m.) In “Black Women: Music of the Heart & Soul,” Carole Lyles Shaw celebrates Black women singers, songwriters, and composers who played groundbreaking roles in the history of many music genres, from opera to country to hip-hop. The work is grounded in traditional forms of quilt-making but presented through a contemporary lens with color, pattern and content. (Artist Talk is Thursday, February 15, 5:30-7 p.m.) In “Social Studies,” Christopher Skura presents a dynamic group of paintings and drawings that represent a snapshot of living in New York City throughout the Covid-19 pandemic. The much-anticipated “Annual Juried Members Show” is juried by Paul Toliver and shines a light on the many talents of Art Center Sarasota members. (A juror’s critique with Toliver is Thursday, February 1, 2 p.m.) The opening reception for all four exhibits is Thursday, January 25, 6-8 p.m. All works on display are available for purchase.
