Curated by Carrie Feder.
The exhibition Twenty/20 celebrates the 20th anniversary of the Athens Cultural Center by exploring the multiple meanings of “twenty,” as a number, an anniversary, a cycle and as a symbol of change, passage of time, transformation and growth. “Twenty” holds significance in mathematics, astrology, numerology and religion as well as signifying the coming of age in many traditions.
It also alludes to vision, and to our journey through life and towards greater understanding.Like any subject, once delved into, the web of meanings which are a part of our collective cultures are illuminated in ways we may not have been conscious of before.
Artwork and ephemera relating to the various meanings of “twenty” include the Aster Flower, pieces made of china or porcelain, and the use of green – the color of emeralds, which are symbolic gifts commemorating the passage of twenty years.
