Peggy Snow

"Printers Alley," Peggy Snow

In March, Peggy Snow showed a collection of her signature painted architectural portraits in What Happened Here at Julia Martin Gallery. The show hung alongside a display of Emily Holt’s multimedia assemblages made from building materials she scavenged at demolition sites. Snow’s artistic reputation has trended from eccentric outsider to Nashville Treasure after years of creative dedication to the disappearing places that once defined our city. Both of these artists point to painful losses in Nashville’s built heritage and our civic consciousness, but they do so without partisan preaching or activist angst, letting these uneasy expressions of our city’s public soul speak for themselves.
