Bearing Witness: Opening Events

Friday, 6PM: Reception with artist Jason Bouldin

Saturday, 10AM and 1:30PM: Gallery Talks with artist Jason Bouldin

The Walter Anderson Museum of Art invites you to commemorate the opening reception of our newest exhibition, Bearing Witness: Southern Visual Elegies. This exhibition features the works of artist Jason Bouldin (b. 1965) alongside those of American master Walter Inglis Anderson (1903-1965) in a sensitive exploration of their depictions of dead nature, or nature morte. The exhibition explores themes of mourning, ritual, and memory through a Southern lens. Further context is provided by the inclusion of objects of folk art and material culture from the University of Mississippi Museum’s permanent collection. Free to the public. 

Bearing Witness was developed in partnership with the University of Mississippi Museum with support from the O’Keefe Family Endowment for the Walter Anderson Museum of Art.…
