The paper-themed exhibitions at the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center are about as bipolar as they come.

??
Like the “Love” and “Hate” tattooed on Robert Mitchum’s knuckles in The Night of the Hunter, there is good and evil, and — to completely belabor the pulpy metaphor — works that soar like airplanes and others that lie as limply as a grease-stained McDonald’s bag.

Juan Miguel Ramos’ work is reminiscent of the defiant, affirmative, outsider chic of Richard Linklater’s Slacker and the late-’80s Gen X zeitgeist that divided the world into the clued-in and the clueless, the with it and the woefully witless.

The San Antonio-based emerging artist’s solo show at Romo Gallery has some of the subversive appeal of underground graphic novels by Daniel Clowes and...

For the third year, Atlanta’s growing roster of galleries is teaming up for ATLart06, a three-week event that, like the Brand Atlanta campaign, seems determined to remind citizens of Atlanta that there is this thing called culture out there some of you may want to check out when the thrill of lap dances at the Cheetah and the Barney’s Co-Op opening wear off.

ATLart06’s kickoff event,...

Romo Gallery in Castleberry Hill has tended to gravitate toward edgy conceptual art done by artists in their 20s and 30s. But owner Sam Romo departs from that generational grid in his small survey of works by Philip Morsberger, a 72-year-old artist whose work has a youthful, winsome touch.

Morsberger’s spry quality may derive from his source imagery. The artist draws from the image bank of his...

The female body is the conventional muse of male artists contemplating form, vanity, nature and the less high-falutin’ matter of sex appeal. The female mind, less so.

Michael Holsomback is the exception to that rule, taking a pointed interest in psychology-infused portraits of women.

His five paintings on view in the Holiday Show at Chrysalis Gallery feel like approximations of memory or...

William Fields is a largely self-taught artist from Winston-Salem, N.C., whose only formal art training came at Duke University where he studied medical illustration for a time.

??
That medical connection is apropos. His intricate drawings in colored pencil and pastel look like expressionistic, mystical visualizations of the internal workings of the body. But it’s a body rendered not entirely...

Dead at 24 when his Porsche Spyder collided with an oncoming car on Calif. Hwy. 41, James Dean joined the member’s-only death cult of the beautiful and the damned whose early bow-outs include JFK, Marilyn Monroe, Jimi Hendrix and Kurt Cobain.

Like some of the key inventions of the 20th century — abstract expressionism, the hydrogen bomb — James Dean’s rebel-cool image has become...
