JUAN LOGAN: SWEETMARE
November 5, 2016 - January 14, 2017
Lyndon House Arts Center, Athens, Georgia
Juan Logan’s artworks address the interconnections of race, place, and power. They make visible how hierarchical relations and social stereotypes shape individuals, institutions, and the material and mental landscapes of contemporary life.
Logan’s works can be found in numerous collections, including the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and the Memphis Brooks Museum. Most recently, his piece Some Clouds are Darker became part of the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture.
Logan’s awards include fellowships from the John Michael Kohler Arts Center, the North Carolina Arts Council, the Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation, the Rutgers Center for Innovative Print and Paper, the Carolina Postdoctoral Scholars Fellow-ship, and the Phillip Morris Companies. Logan received an M.F.A. from the Maryland Institute College of Art.
