Description
Encyclopedia article about art in Georgia since 1960. The decade of the 1960s was the beginning of an auspicious period, which has since continued and flourished unabated in the history of contemporary visual art in Georgia. Any discussion of regional art in modern America should include the artists, who are the principal participants, as well as the dealers, museums, curators, critics, and collectors who interact with the artists in a symbiotic relationship. The various combinations of these relationships were particularly vital to the growth of the visual arts in Georgia after 1960.
