CMHOFM Opens New Student Art Exhibition

The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum has opened their new exhibition “Sources of Me.” The exhibition, located in the Taylor Swift Education Center, features artwork of students across metro Nashville public schools. The works were inspired by Thomas Hart Benton’s final painting “The Sources of Country Music,” which hangs in the museum’s Hall of Fame Rotunda and depicts the musical and cultural roots of country music.

For their pieces, students combined their stories with Benton’s vision by focusing on his use of imagery, color and ideals. Inspired by a mix of cultural and personal influences including music, community and family, the exhibit represents a diverse range of perspectives rooted in individual life experiences. Topics explored in the artwork include music-related topics such as disco, hip-hop and jazz, explorations around interracial marriages, the struggles of being a teenager and transgender activism.
