a focused off-site project at the Starlight Drive-In Swap Meet during five Saturdays in November and December. 

Originally opened in 1949, the Starlight is an old school six-screen drive-in movie theater, which also houses a year-round swap meet on weekend mornings/early afternoons. This project could be looked at as an Atlanta version of an art fair, with only one table showing art work. The diverse 85+ vendors set up something of a Mexican Mercado, selling socks, bicycles, sneakers, old televisions, toiletries and toothpaste, etc. Most venders utilize EZ-Up style canopies, spread their wares out on blankets, or hawk their items from vans. Everyone is buying and selling something: everyone but us. Nothing will be for sale at our table, just conversation. This project continues and extends our ideas to bringing artist-based exhibition platforms beyond the gallery spaces. Our booth will contain a canopy, a small table, and we will present work by one artist per week.
Also, each week, our curator Daniel Fuller will be buying one small object from another booth at the swap meet—a knockoff designer purse, a cell phone cover, Pica Gomas candies—and bringing those objects back to Atlanta Contemporary’s SHOP to resell.
Please join us!
