TALLAHASSEE, FL – LeMoyne Arts is proud to announce Southern Exposure, a captivating and groundbreaking solo exhibition by celebrated artist Joe Roache, running from Thursday, January 23, to Saturday, February 22, 2025. This dynamic collection celebrates the soul of the South through Roache’s stunning and evocative paintings, brought to life in an extraordinary fusion of art and technology.
The exhibition will span four gallery rooms: three filled with Joe Roache’s traditional artwork, showcasing his vibrant portrayals of Southern culture and landscapes, and one featuring an immersive experience. In collaboration with visionary artists Keith Roberson and Will Hill, the Albrecht Gallery will come alive with generative animation projections inspired by Roache’s paintings. These projections extend beyond the frames, transforming the space into an interactive environment where art interacts with itself and the viewer.
