Number Presents Art of the South 2017 (Curated by Mark Scala)
Mark Scala is the chief curator at the Frist Center for the Visual Arts. His major exhibitions have focused on the representation of the body in contemporary art. The most recent was Phantom Bodies: The Human Aura in Art (2015), which explores the subjects of loss and remembrance in contemporary art. This exhibition received an honorable mention from the Association of Art Museum Curators for best exhibition of 2015 in a mid-size museum. The 2012 exhibition, Fairy Tales, Monsters, and the Genetic Imagination, an international survey on the theme of the hybrid body in folklore, science fiction, and genetic engineering, was one of five finalists for the AAMC’s best thematic exhibition of 2012. Paint Made Flesh (2009) was a compilation of figure painting in the U.S., Germany, and Britain since World War II. In 2007, Scala was curator of Whispering Winds: Recent Chinese Photography featuring works by 21 contemporary artists from China, who are internationally celebrated for images that examine contrasts between traditionalism and globalism, the real and unreal, nature and urban life, and the personal and social that have come into sharp focus since the end of the Cultural Revolution. Scala has also organized solo exhibitions on emerging and mid-career artists, including Guido van der Werve, Inka Essenhigh, Gregory Barsamian, U-Ram Choe, Angelo Filomeno, Mike Hoolboom, Simen Johan, Tokihiro Sato, Ana Maria Tavares, and Camille Utterback.
Before coming to the Frist Center, Scala was curator at the Art Museum of Western Virginia, where he worked for ten years. He received his MA in art history in 1988 and MFA in painting in 1979, both from Virginia Commonwealth University. From 2008-2013, he held the position of senior guest lecturer at Vanderbilt University, teaching the course Sources of Contemporary Art. He has been a member of the Association of Art Museum Curators since 2001, and served on its board from 2010-2016.

Tape Art Finale: Party on the Plaza
Wednesday, May 24, 4-7pm
Memphis Brooks Museum of Art

Join us in removing the mural created by the Rhode Island-based artist collective Tape Art.

Using ladders, a boom lift and a bountiful amount of low-adhesive paper tape, Tape Art founder Michael Townsend, creative director Leah Smith and the Tape Art Crew will begin the mural-making process on the Brooks Museum's façade on Monday, May 8. The public is invited to drop by to observe the progress of the work, to participate and to interact with the artists. The artwork created in our third project of the Brooks Outside series is intentionally temporary.

Regardless of the time spent to create the mural, the installation will end with an invitation to the public to join in the removal process on Wednesday, May 24. Tape Art Finale: Party on the Plaza will take place from 4 to 7 p.m. with music, art making, food trucks and more.
--------------------------------------

Brooks Outside: Tape Art is sponsored by Wyatt, Tarrant & Combs LLP and Deloitte Services LP, with special thanks to Ruth and Casey Bowlin and Montgomery Martin Contractors.
