Approaching Atlanta’s High Museum of Art, you see a painted sculpture of a house that may well bring a smile. It is a work by the artist Roy Lichtenstein titled “House III.”
It was a gift from John Wieland Homes and Neighborhoods to honor its company members. Mr. Wieland has said, “Home is so much more than sticks and bricks.”
The sentiment is expressed in over 400 ways in the extensive contemporary art collection of John and Sue Wieland, a body of work centered around the theme of domestic space.
The collection will be open to the public starting April 13 in a newly renovated 39,000-square-foot gallery called The Warehouse.
In this interview, owner John Wieland joined “City Lights” host Lois me now to share more.
Correction: The headline of this story incorrectly identified the High Museum of Art as the venue for this collection and has been corrected. The collection will be on view at The Warehouse in Westside Atlanta.
