This last year has been a landmark one for the Atlanta art scene. The inauguration of the Atlanta Art Fair—which opened for the first time in October of 2024 and coincided with the third edition of Kendra Walker’s Atlanta Art Week—was accompanied by blockbuster exhibitions from the likes of Ming Smith, Amanda Williams, Sally Mann, Ryoji Ikeda and more. That momentum hasn’t slowed; if anything, it’s a defining feature of the city’s summer season.
Atlanta Art Fair will return in September, bringing the art world back to Atlanta, and while there are sure to be more showstopper exhibitions opening alongside the fair, this month’s lineup of museum and gallery shows is proof that in Atlanta, art is a year-round affair. Through July, there are shows featuring photography, drawing, painting, sculpture and printmaking, tackling themes of immigration, mythology, American history and psychoanalysis. In other words, there’s something for everyone.
