‘Taking Flight’: Joe Overstreet’s Art Exhibits Encapsulate Geometry and Immersion

The Mississippi Museum of Art in Jackson is presenting 'Joe Overstreet: Taking Flight,' a major exhibition featuring three collections of the late artist's work, including his 'Flight Patterns' series. The show, organized by The Menil Collection in Houston and running through Jan. 25, 2026, highlights Overstreet's abstract phase with works from the 1960s, 1970s, and 1990s that use ropes and metal grommets to create multi-dimensional pieces exploring themes of flight and movement. The exhibition includes loans from private collections, other museums, and the Eric Firestone Gallery, which represents Overstreet's estate.
