United Talent Agency (UTA) has opened an artist's gallery in Atlanta, signaling the city's growing art scene.

UTA's arrival has been met with optimism, but some concerns have been raised that the agency may not promote Atlanta and Georgia artists. UTA's gallery is seen as a potential partner for making art in the city more accessible.

"Showing Up": A Masterpiece of Artistic Portrayal and Talent.

"Showing Up" is a gentle and sometimes funny film by Kelly Reichardt, centering on the relationship between Lizzy, a sculptor, and her landlord and fellow artist, Jo. Lizzy is stuck and envious of Jo's hardiness and resilience, but doesn't realize that everyone moves at their own pace.

While the structure of the film may be a little too neat, Reichardt's piercing specificity and insights into the dynamics of the art scene are spot on.
