Harry Shearer: The Silent Echo Chamber
Atlanta Contemporary Art Center

Featuring work by: Harry Shearer

Exhibition: Sat, Sep 12 to Sun, Nov 22

Harry Shearer is one of America’s most prominent satirists, and during a stint as a writer and cast member on Saturday Night Live in the 1980s, he discovered satellite news feeds. His The Silent Echo Chamber videos feature media and political personalities in the awkward moments before “going live.”

In addition to this exhibition, there will be an Artist Lecture & Panel Discussion with Mr. Shearer at the High Museum on November 20th.
