Table of Contents Carolina Arts, February 2020 - Page 17 Columbia Museum of Art in Columbia, SC, Features Kirk Hammett Collection The Columbia Museum of Art in Colum- bia, SC, will present It’s Alive! Classic Hor- ror and Sci-Fi Art from the Kirk Hammett Collection, an exhibition of graphic art that has seeped into the public imagination and reflected society’s deepest fears and anxiet- ies for nearly a century, on view from Feb. 15 through May 17, 2020. Best known as lead guitarist of the famed rock band Metallica, Kirk Hammett is also an obsessive collector of visually arresting horror and sci-fi film art and has dedicated the last three decades to creating one of the world’s most important collections. The exhibition, organized by the Peabody Essex Museum (PEM), is touring internationally and makes its final stop at the CMA. “This show reminds us that art casts a broad net and includes more than paintings with big gold frames,” says CMA Chief Cu- rator Will South. “It is about the dreams and fantasies that stick with us through child- hood and beyond.
