Celebrate the closing of Landmarks: Inside the World of R.Land with a special evening featuring acclaimed Atlanta artist R. Land in conversation with Kim Drobes, Executive Producer and Co-Host of The City Lights Collective on WABE.
For nearly three decades, R. Land has captivated audiences with his unconventional, instantly recognizable style—an artistic voice once described as combining “the approach of Keith Haring, the enthusiasm of Disney, and the vision of Finster.” From large-format paintings and iconic street installations to his ubiquitous “Loss Cat” project, Land’s work defies categorization while shaping the cultural fabric of Atlanta and beyond.
Guiding the conversation is Kim Drobes, a seasoned broadcaster and storyteller who has spent her career championing creativity and human connection. Together, they’ll explore Land’s artistic journey, community-driven projects, and his lasting influence on Atlanta’s art and identity.
Following the talk, raise a glass at our closing reception bar as we toast the exhibition, the artist, and the city that inspires his work.
North Florida native and Atlanta original, R.Land, has been filling streets, spaces and imaginations for nearly three decades. Once described by an art critic as having "the approach of Keith Haring, the enthusiasm of Disney and the vision of Finster", he ultimately defies categorization and garners a multi-generational fan base, with collectors and devotees as unique and varied as his unconventional style.
