CLTRL CNTXT – Grand Opening Exhibition & Gallery Launch

Nashville, Tenn. – This fall, the celebrated modern art gallery CASS Contemporary (CASS) makes its Nashville debut with CLTRL CNTXT, a group exhibition opening on Friday, Sept. 12, and running through November. This exhibit brings together seven international artists in a powerful reflection on global identity, connection, and culture.

CLTRL CNTXT features seven artists from seven countries: Florian Eymann, Michal Mraz, Joram Roukes, Kim Byungkwan, Allison Hueman, Nicholas Romero Escalada, and Fintan Magee, with each contributing two to three original paintings. Together, their work explores how shared cultural references, ranging from television characters and iconic art to historical figures and pop culture symbols, can build bridges across lived experiences and national borders.

Opening night on Sept. 12 will include a festive evening and the opportunity to meet owners Jake and Cassie Greatens. The event also marks a new chapter for Nashville’s creative scene as CASS joins the city’s expanding landscape of contemporary art spaces.
