You are where you live. That’s the premise of the Carnegie Center’s latest exhibition with local artists Ashley Brossart, Carlos Gamez de Francisco, Sarah LaBarge and Thaniel Ion Lee. They delve deeper than the physical to show viewers how inner and outer experiences are more informative than what’s on the surface. A visual portrait of a city is Brossart’s artistic quest, capturing how a person feels about a location more than the likeness. De Francisco’s work is similar, except it’s his feelings and exploration of Louisville that he paints. LaBarge’s portraits are emotion personified, working “with the figure in a more metaphorical way than usual,” while Lee’s paintings are stream-of-consciousness renderings expressing his own emotions. The opening reception is Friday from 6-8 p.m. Check the website for additional events. —Jo Anne Triplett
