With Cine-Rama and its Swine Gallery now a memory on Main Street, local film club Mise En Scenesters has opened new Chattanooga Film Festival headquarters, the Palace Picture House, and added its requisite art gallery, ErrSpace, on Georgia Avenue.
Alecia Vera Buckles has the honor of the first solo exhibition, a fact she partly attributes to a favor after “an incident” at First Tennessee Pavilion in late April.
“My entire tent was destroyed in the storm at the opening weekend of the Chattanooga Market, and [curator] Aaron [Cowan] was kind enough to offer the June spot to me,” she says. “This seemed to be the perfect opportunity for me to produce new work as quick as I could to get back on my feet and to give the community another chance to see my work in person.”
A North Georgia native, Buckles has titled her exhibition of mixed-media illustrations “Gunk Heads.” It will be on view through June 16.
