Spelman Museum Celebrates 30 Years of Black Women’s Art with “Between Here & Infinity: Celebrating 30 Years of the Spelman College Art Collection”

September 9 – December 5, 2026
All day
350 Spelman Ln, SW, Atlanta, Georgia 30314, USA

Description

Between Here & Infinity: Celebrating 30 Years of the Spelman College Art Collection is grounded in dreaming and the Black feminist imagination, exploring ways of knowing, seeing, and creating shaped by Black women’s lived experiences. Between Here & Infinity presents artworks drawn from the permanent collection, organized by areas inspired by the layers of Earth’s atmosphere to gesture toward the vast and diverse qualities of the Black feminist imagination which shapes it: the Root, works that ground the collection in origin and tradition; the Threshold, works that evoke crossings through transitional space; the Interior, works that turn inward toward intimacy and quietude; the Expanse, works that are conceptually daring and electric in color; and the Horizon, where the past meets the future and dissolves into limitless possibility. Visitors are invited to explore the exhibition in any order they choose, taking in the collection’s range and depth.

Delphine Diallo: The Mythic Quest

September 18 – November 14, 2026
All day
352 University Ave SW, Atlanta, GA 30310, USA

Description

For generations, Black women have been photographed, documented and interpreted through someone else’s gaze. What happens when they control the image, and when artists gain entirely new tools for creating it?

At a moment when artificial intelligence is rapidly changing how images are created, consumed and understood, Delphine Diallo brings a powerful female voice to the conversation. Working across photography, collage, moving image and AI, her practice challenges traditional approaches to visual storytelling while examining identity, power, spirituality, transformation and the representation of Black women.

Inspired by Joseph Campbell’s concept of “The Hero’s Journey,” The Mythic Quest also traces Diallo’s own journey of discovery and transformation. Through the exhibition, she considers what it means to leave, question, transform and ultimately return with a new way of seeing.

Hammonds House Museum presents NU AFRICANS an exhibition by Maurice Evans and Grace Kisa

September 18 – December 13, 2026
All day
503 Peeples Street, Atlanta, GA 30310, USA

Description

Hammonds House Museum is excited to present NU AFRICANS. The artworks consider the notion that Africans of the Diaspora through the circumstances of bondage and oppression have evolved into their own tribe complete with cultural practices and their own language. Maurice Evans calls them “NU AFRICANS.” Inspired by the legendary warriors and queens on the African continent, each woman was costumed by Grace Kisa and photographed by Maurice in two looks, as a warrior and a queen.

The inspiration for this exhibit takes its roots from Africa, but the women featured are from this time and place. The intention of this project is to subvert existing stereotypes and prejudice, challenge the viewer to consider beauty beyond a eurocentric aesthetic, while creating space and offering agency, engaging the mechanism of Afrofuturism to imagine an alternative existence.


Black women on this side of the Atlantic have been working toward dismantling the systems of oppression that have worked to impede their liberation for centuries. The creative process for this series has led the artists to research past and present warrior queens on both sides of the Atlantic as a celebration of fortitude while expanding on the ideas of memory, kinship, identity and power.
