Nashville Gallery CASS contemporary to Showcase Dual Exhibits by Renowned Artist Tristan Eaton
Nashville, TN – CASS Contemporary is currently hosting a unique exhibition featuring the work of internationally acclaimed artist Tristan Eaton, marking his first show in Nashville. The exhibit, running through February 15, 2026, presents two distinct collections: “Lately” and “Women of Marvel.”
Eaton’s notable resume includes large-scale murals worldwide, collaborations with SpaceX – making him the first artist to send art into space and have it return – and work featured at the Long Beach Museum of Art and MoMA.
“He’s world-renowned,” said CASS Contemporary representative Greatens. “We’re so excited about bringing him to Nashville. He’s never exhibited here.”
The “Lately” collection consists of 14 works on wood, demonstrating Eaton’s skill with spray paint and exploring themes of humor, love, loss, and the human experience. Concurrently, the gallery displays ”Women of Marvel,” a series of portraits of female Marvel characters, made possible by Eaton’s rare licensing partnership with Marvel.
CASS Contemporary aims to make the art accessible to a broad audience, offering pieces at multiple price points, including prints.”We’re just trying to add CASS’ point of view to [Nashville’s art scene], and what we do that we think stands out a little within an already great landscape,” Greatens explained. “We’re excited to share that with the city…welcoming people who maybe don’t even like art yet and end up falling in love with it.”
The gallery specifically hopes to attract students and faculty from vanderbilt University. “We’d love for Vanderbilt…all the students…to come,” Greatens stated. “They’re all so different, so I think it hits so many different groups of individuals.”
CASS Contemporary has rotating exhibits planned through 2027, alongside its permanent collection.
