Kooky, crazy and eclectic: ‘Imagination runs wild’ at the Mary Sims exhibition

Artist Mary Sims is the subject of a new exhibition at the Dixon Gallery & Gardens in Memphis, featuring her eclectic and imaginative works. The article highlights a signature piece titled "Merlin," inspired by a 1978 photograph of interior designer Rodgers Menzies dressed in a yellow caftan, purple cloak, and newspaper cone hat, posing by a stone lion outside a now-demolished Union Avenue mansion. The exhibition showcases Sims' kooky, crazy, and imaginative style.

Five-Minute Tours: "Blank" at the Grackle Art Gallery, Fort Worth

The Grackle Art Gallery in Fort Worth, Texas, is hosting "Blank," a group exhibition curated by the artist duo Kickpigeon Kids (Cosmo Jones and Max Marshall) from May 2–30, 2026. The show features works by twelve artists including Amber Zora & Lee Strubinger, Carmen Menza, and Elizabeth Sciore-Jones, who were asked to submit artwork alongside an object representing "blankness" as a metaphor for possibility. The curators transform the exhibition into a collaborative installation, blending the artists' pieces with their chosen objects and ephemera.
