As part of the Frist Art Museum’s ambition to creatively activate spaces throughout its historic building, we present our inaugural Art in the Atrium project, underscoring that art is all around us. Nashville-based artist TC is creating two new large-scale collages on the landings of both of our grand staircases. TC began making collages in high school when an art teacher introduced them to the work of Romare Bearden. TC’s projects often draw from their experiences growing up in East Memphis, shining a light on the many hardships and bright spots found in often difficult environments.

This initiative is presented in association with the exhibition Multiplicity: Blackness in Contemporary American Collage opening September 15 in the Ingram Gallery. Guests can also view one of Bearden’s most celebrated works, Three Folk Musicians, in Storied Strings: The Guitar in American Art through August 13 in the Ingram Gallery.

The Frist Art Museum is a nonprofit art-exhibition center dedicated to presenting the finest visual art from local, state and regional artists, as well as major U.S. and international exhibitions. The Frist occupies Nashville’s former main post office building, a 124,400-square-foot facility with nearly 40,000 square feet of exhibition space. The city’s treasured art deco building was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
