In an era when everyone is paying attention to NFTs, is there still room for painting? Curator Didi Dunphy thinks so. As the third in a series of triennial traveling exhibitions organized by the Lyndon House Arts Center and the Georgia Museum of Art at the University of Georgia, “Picture This” selects the work of 11 Georgia-based painters who focus on narrative for an exhibition that shows painting is as alive as ever. Artists with work in “Picture This” include: Bo Bartlett and Orion Wertz, of Columbus, Georgia; Holly Coulis, Cheryl Goldsleger and Margaret Morrison, of Athens; Shanequa Gay, Fahamu Pecou, Dianna Settles and Tori Tinsley, of Atlanta; Melissa Huang, of Statesboro; and Cedric Smith, of Macon. After the Lyndon House, the show travels to galleries across the state of Georgia. The exhibition opens at the Lyndon House on June 18 with a reception June 23.
