Nice to Meet You at the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center (ACAC) pairs the work of West Coast artists Tony Labat and Tad Savinar. The artists had never met prior to Artistic Director Stuart Horodner’s introduction, nor did they know of each other’s work. Nice to Meet You implies a literal introduction that brought forth a comparison and collaboration. Though Labat and Savinar have disparate practices, this exhibition creates a new context for their work that heightens the political impact of each...

Tony Labat & Tad Savinar: Nice to Meet You
This exhibition combines the works of Tony Labat and Tad Savinar, two influential West Coast conceptualists who explore the personal and the socio-political in drawing, sculpture, video, printmaking, and performance. The title, Nice to Meet You, acknowledges the fact that until this pairing was planned, the artists had never met, and it affirms that both men are interested in reaching audiences in accessible and often humorous ways.
