The Belger Arts Center is pleased to present, Mystery & Mark, Opening Friday, March 6, from 6-9 pm at 2100 Walnut, Kansas City, MO.The exhibition will remain on view through September 25, 2020. Mystery & Mark is the third in a series of exhibitions celebrating Belger Cartage Service, Inc.’s 100th anniversary and the Belger Arts Center’s 20th anniversary. Each exhibition has focused on a particular area in the Belger Collection’s history. These include decorative and fine arts, historical objects, contemporary craft and even cars. Mystery & Mark features works from the collection by Jasper Johns, Creighton Michael, Robert Stackhouse and Terry Winters that spark imaginings and contemplations of the world and our space within it. Nature, architecture, memory, biology and the universe are among thematic subjects relayed through visceral and evocative abstractions rich in color, gesture, texture and material. While these artists have signature styles, they share an affinity of concept and approach rooted in drawing, mark-making and layering concepts. Mystery & Mark celebrates the multiplicity of each artist and their creations in context with one another, and with attention to their diverse manifestations of the mark. The Belger Arts Center launched with a William Christenberry exhibition in March of 2000. Since then, we have shown work by over 500 artists utilizing hundreds of materials and created in over 50 countries in the Americas, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia. We're saving Antarctica for the next 20 years! And a special thanks to the more than 100,000 visitors who have graced our facilities. We firmly believe that it takes interested visitors to activate a gallery.
