Marcus Kenney has called Savannah home since the mid-’90s, when he moved here from his hometown in Louisiana to attend Savannah College of Art and Design for his master’s in photography. But it hasn’t been until relatively recently that he’s truly embraced his home on the Georgia coast.
His upcoming exhibition “Look! I’m Over There” at Laney Contemporary, which opens Nov. 16, is Kenney’s first solo show in Savannah in five years and finds him coming to terms with his place as an artist in the southeast. It also represents a somewhat new direction in his artwork.
