"Aguilera and Makonnen tried to give form to the overwhelming personal and collective emotions of rage, disappointment, exhaustion and bruised hope that they experienced in the last six months."

Senior Curator Andrea Karnes speaks about the installation. Artists include Njideka Akunyili Crosby, Yasumasa Morimura, Carrie Mae Weems, Martine Gutierrez, Kehinde Wiley, and Rineke Dijkstra.

"The ceramic works in the show are abstract but very much tell a story of her life in 2020."

"Through three different artistic disciplines, such as fiber art, sculpture and painting, Nela Garzón questions the mercantile and disposable paradigm of objects in conflict with cultural identities."

"Drennan’s installation connects street and sky through found textiles that provide a message of hope; Bradford’s found photographs are altered through embroidery to literally and metaphorically bind people together in a time of longing and uncertainty."

"Williams' paintings often depict lonely places, the air thick with isolation and dread, like an image by Hopper crossed with a scene from a Cohen brothers' movie."

Featured artists include Helen Altman, Billy Hassell, Jules Buck Jones, Lance Letscher, Emily Peacock, Julie Speed, and many others.

"For almost two decades, Federico Archuleta has been a part of Austin’s landscape."

"The thing about our pasts — they will follow us around until we address them and let them go."

"Cabrales’ multi-media installations and sculptures combine playful — even comic — imagination with today’s headline topics: immigration, financial disarray, consumerism, and terrorism."

"To define contemporary craft in 2020, one should look well beyond the edges of the labels historically attached to the practice and the associated objects."

"AWS’s annual exhibition is one of the most revered watercolor exhibits in the world. Forty paintings were selected from more than 1,100 artists worldwide."

"Through a conjured manipulation of substance and light, the show oscillates between visceral physicality and ethereal immateriality."

Featuring works by Rachel Comminos, Julie DeVries, Soomin Jung, Paloma Mayorga, and Ryan Runcie.

"These paintings — portraits of the memoirist Cat Marnell juxtaposed with observed interiors — are arranged within the exhibition to foreground the relationship between their content and the space around them, occupied by a viewing subject."

"The artist utilizes the iconography, brilliant colors, and elaborate designs of medieval manuscripts as a stage for the exploration of everyday contemporary life, often incorporating familiar faces from the Houston art scene."

"Utilizing visual language as action, barnes allows her figures to challenge patterns of complacency and grab hold of power."

"Created through large-format means, this body of work seeks to discover the nature of the photograph and translate the medium into new contemporary forms of visual language."

Artists also included in the "New Walls | New Corners" exhibition are Susan Budge, Kelley Devine, Tatiana Escallon, and Lorena Morales.
