The Frist Art Museum will present Designing the New: Charles Rennie Mackintosh and the Glasgow Style, an immersive exhibition that showcases Charles Rennie Mackintosh-the greatest exponent of the Glasgow Style-as an architect, designer, and artist, and contextualizes his production within a larger circle of designers and craftspeople in Scotland s largest city. Co-organized by Glasgow Museums and the American Federation of Arts, the exhibition will be on view in the Frist s Ingram Gallery from June 11 through September 12, 2021.
At the end of the 19th century, the Glasgow Style emerged as the major manifestation of Art Nouveau in Britain. Combining influences from the Arts and Crafts movement, Celtic Revival, and Japonism, Glasgow artists created their own modern design aesthetic, synonymous with sleek lines and emphatic geometries expressed in a wide range of materials.

For Garfield, Jordan Casteel’s
Kevin the Kiteman hits home. In the piece, Kevin sits on a bicycle decked in kites of various kinds hawks, wings, rainbows, an anime mermaid. Behind him is a state office building engraved with and named after
Adam Clayton Powell Jr., the first African American to be elected from New York to Congress. “An amazing feat,” Garfield says, “but based upon the missing letters in his name, this symbolizes what’s often the neglect and disregard for preserving Black history and culture in this country.”
