SUMMARY:Exhibition: Eunkang Koh: Desire
DESCRIPTION:Eunkang Koh: Desire\n\nExhibition Dates: May 15 – September 14\, 2023\nArtist’s Reception: Tuesday\, September 5\, 5 – 6:30pm; artist’s introduction at 5:30pm\nExhibition Venue: Bristlecone Gallery\, Western Nevada College\, 2201 W College Parkway\, Carson City \nDesire\nExhibition in WNC’s Bristlecone Gallery\nEunkang Koh said\, “My recent work responds to lifestyles and thinking processes that are often ruled by consumerism.” In her Desire exhibition for the Capital City Arts Initiative\, Koh presents sculptures and prints laced with diversity and humor. \nThe exhibit is open to the public May 15 – September 14\, 2023\, Monday through Friday\, 8am – 7pm\, in Western Nevada College’s Bristlecone Gallery\, 2201 W College Parkway\, Carson City. Visit the gallery over the summer and then return on Tuesday\, September 5\, 5pm – 6:30pm for the artist’s reception; the artist introduction is at 5:30pm. \nKoh noted\, “In my artwork\, I draw from the human circumstances that flourish between reality and perception. Born and raised in the Korean myth culture and adopting Buddhist philosophy\, I assume that the world we are living in is not real but is an illusion that we perceive. I doubt that there is anything like truth in a concrete sense. I aim to create my own illusion in my art. My images are my way of seeing the world without pretense.” \nOften using half-animal and half-human figures in her artwork\, she said\, “Those hybrid creatures represent portraits\, humans as social animals and the society that we live in often expressing the absurdity of the human world. They portray ironic gestures that create a mixture of humor and grotesqueness\, reflecting life in our society.” \nKoh feels that her recent work responds to lifestyles and thinking processes that are often ruled by consumerism. She talks about her creatures as “a portrait of us\, humans who reside in this illusionary world created by our own systems.” \nTo show the mass consumer culture where humans live in today’s contemporary society\, Koh employs different types of printmaking techniques incorporating other media such as relief\, intaglio\, screen printing\, as well as digital processes\, and new technologies like laser cutter and 3D printer that she combines with sewing\, ceramics\, bookbinding\, etc. She also experiments with human-made materials such as plastic boxes\, vinyl sheets\, and paper bags\, products that symbolize our micromanaged and controlled society. \nA native of South Korea\, Eunkang Koh received a B.F.A. from Hong-Ik University in Seoul\, South Korea\, and an M.F.A. from California State University\, Long Beach. Koh has also participated national and international group exhibitions in Canada\, Spain\, South Korea\, China\, and New York City. Koh has been invited to artist-in-residencies including Northern Ireland\, Belgium\, China\, India\, and Berkeley\, California. \nKoh is an Associate Professor in printmaking in the Art Department at the University of Nevada Reno. \nJosie Glassberg wrote the essay for the exhibition — available online and in the gallery. Glassberg is a freelance writer whose work has regularly appeared in Double Scoop Art News\, the Reno News & Review\, and Fibonacci magazine. She attended St. Olaf College for printmaking and enjoys writing about art in the West when she’s not busy with her main gig as a garden teacher. \nCarlos Ramirez\, a Western Nevada College Latino Leadership Academy student\, provided a Spanish translation of the show’s wall text. \nWestern Nevada College is a component of the Nevada System of Higher Education\, with campuses in Carson City\, Douglas County\, and Fallon. CCAI is an artist-centered nonprofit organization committed to community engagement in contemporary visual arts through exhibitions\, illustrated talks\, arts education programs\, artist residencies\, and online activities. \nThe Initiative is funded by the John Ben Snow Memorial Trust\, Nevada Humanities and the National Endowment for the Humanities\, John and Grace Nauman Foundation\, Nevada Arts Council and the National Endowment for the Arts\, Carson City Cultural Commission\, U.S. Bank Foundation\, Kaplan Family Charitable Fund\, Southwest Gas Corporation Foundation\, Steele & Associates LLC\, and CCAI sponsors and members. \nimage\, right: Doughnut Dreams; 18″x 24″x 4″; screen printing\, sewing\, relief\, aluminum tray; 2021\nimage\, left: Watching\, installation view\, detail: 120″x120″x120″\, relief printing and fabric\, 2021\nimage\, center: Desire exhibition flier

SUMMARY:Luminous Flux: When Light is Scene - solo exhibition by Dan Brady - Core Contemporary
DESCRIPTION:Core Contemporary is proud to present “Luminous Flux: When Light is Scene\,” a solo exhibition by Las Vegas artist\, Dan Brady @void._.space The exhibition explores Brady’s visual storytelling through monotone paintings\, whose contents are unseen until lit from behind. The exhibition is on view through July 21\, 2023. \nAn innovative mixed-media artist\, Brady has created white painted canvases that hide their imagery until “triggered” in some way by the viewer. These paintings explore the notion that artwork does not exist without a viewer. Placed in a gallery setting\, the work appears\, at first glance\, to be calm\, meditative abstracts\, textured paintings; however\, as the viewers interact with the work\, they reveal powerful imagery\, surreal worlds\, and even comedic critiques on modern culture. \nGallery is open Tuesday-Friday\, 12-6pm\, and by appointment.  \nBrady will also present an in-person artist’s talk during the closing reception on July 21\, 2023\, 6-9pm.

Folk have traveled from far and wide to bask in its glow. \nThe Paiute\, Pueblo\, and Moapa bands took the journey long before the lights. Coming down from the mountains to set up winter camp in the valley\, they hunted and fished here\, cultivated rice\, and bathed in the natural springs. Each migration that followed—from the Spanish scouts who christened us “The Meadows\,” Las Vegas\, to the missionaries\, prospectors\, settlers\, and gangsters—chased not only a change of season\, but a kind of erasure\, a starting again. \nThe same was true for Black families journeying out of the southern reaches of the U.S. The shimmer of a desert dimly lit by the first lights\, well before the Strip\, promised an escape from racial terror\, limited opportunity\, and the legacy of Jim Crow. Sunday morning preachers encouraged parishioners to seek economic salvation by traveling West. The brilliant reportage of Ida B. Wells\, whose work led to the Anti-Lynching Laws of 1900\, further sparked the Great Migration\, as more than 6 million African-Americans relocated from the rural South to burgeoning cities in the North and West\, between 1910 and 1970. Early Black pioneers\, such as John Howell\, who prospected and ranched as early as 1870\, were the lodestar for those who came in the post-WWII boom as the Hoover Dam began construction.  In the decades since\, Black Las Vegans continue to leave behind established meccas of culture in D.C.\, Richmond\, Charlotte\, Chicago\, Detroit\, L.A.\, Atlanta to find surprising sustenance here in this desert—discovering and building a community\, a connection\, an excellence and identity that flourishes within and beyond the neon. \n\n\n\n\nABOUT THE ARTISTS\nJeff Scheid has been photographing Las Vegas for more than three decades. From chasing down the infamous Hole in the Wall Gang and Chicago mobster Tony “The Ant” Spilotro with his defense attorney Oscar Goodman as they walk defiantly out the doors of justice\, to photographing the UNLV Runnin’ Rebels basketball team on the road to the National Championship\, to capturing some of the most famous celebrities on the Las Vegas Strip\, Scheid has been there to tell the story of Las Vegas. \nHe co-authored the book “Quicksilver\, The Ted Binion Murder Case.” The book documented the trial with over 200 photos. \nScheid is a celebrated photographer who chronicled the history and day-to-day lives of the Fallini family\, owners of one of Nevada’s oldest working ranches in Nevada. Titled “Ranching in the High Desert\,” the series exhibited at the Nevada State Museum in Carson City and the Nevada State Museum in Las Vegas. He has also captured the lives of everyday and celebrity workers on the Las Vegas Strip. Jeff’s current projects include documenting old and new Nevada. Jeff balances his time photographing life in rural Nevada and the ethnic diversity of Las Vegas. \nErica Vital-Lazare: Artist\, writer\, and professor of creative writing at the College\, Erica is a recipient of grants and awards from the Zora Neale Hurston/Richard Wright Foundation\, the Virginia Commonwealth University’s Hilliard Endowment\, the Virginia Council of the Arts and the Nevada Arts Council. Cofounder of the nonprofit\, The Obodo Collective\, she is editor of a forthcoming series revisiting classic Black works in literature with McSweeney’s Press\, Of the Diaspora. \nAbout the Office for the Arts at Nevada State\nThe Office for the Arts enhances living and learning through arts and culture on campus and in the community.

SUMMARY:What the Desert Already Has\, Exhibit by Jen Urso
DESCRIPTION:What the Desert Already Has\, 2023\nJen Urso\nPerformance\, soil from Mormon Mesa (Michael Heizer’s “Double Negative”)\, recycled Plexiglas\, lights\, digitally printed poster \n“What the Desert Already Has” focuses on the small\, time-consuming effort of life in the desert\, from seed to plant. This piece uses soil harvested from Mormon Mesa\, where Michael Heizer created “Double Negative.” The soil was placed in two 1/120 scale trenches\, which is irrigated and lit with grow lights to encourage dormant seeds to grow. Intended as a long-term\, slow performance\, this piece focuses on the small\, persistent efforts of abundant desert life\, contrasted with the large\, destructive bulldozing and mark-making of 1960s/70s land artists like Heizer. The accompanying Mormon Mesa botanical poster situated between the two Plexiglas trenches features plants found by the artist and citizen scientists on iNaturalist with information on known ethnobotanical uses. \nThis temporary exhibit will run from July 12 through Oct 20\, 2023\, in the 1981 gallery.

This exhibition connects artists and their work to the nostalgia behind the phrase “hija/o de tu madre.” Through that phrase\, the artists examine their practice and reflect on childhood and the cultural expectations of living in a latina/e/o/x household. 𝐻𝒾𝒿𝒶/𝑒/𝑜/𝓍(𝓈) 𝒹𝑒 𝒮𝓊– explores joy\, rebellion\, tragedy\, mischief\, and the feeling of “IYKYK” (if you know\, you know).

SUMMARY:Solo Exhibition "Learning to be Lost" by Reno City Artist Rossitza Todorova
DESCRIPTION:Reno\, NV – The Metro Gallery at Reno City Hall is hosting “Learning to be Lost\,” a solo exhibition by 2022-23 Reno City Artist Rossitza Todorova. The show will run from June 19 to August 4\, 2023\, and will showcase new paintings by Todorova that embrace the metaphorical concept of being lost within the desert landscape. \nThe artist reception will take place on Thursday\, July 13\, 2023\, from 5 – 7 p.m.\, and visitors will have a chance to engage with Todorova and learn more about her work. Admission to the exhibition is free\, making it accessible to all community members. \nRossitza Todorova\, a professional artist and Professor of Art at Truckee Meadows Community College in Reno\, Nevada\, has an interesting artistic journey that began when she emigrated from Sofia\, Bulgaria\, to Reno\, Nevada\, during her childhood. It was amidst the desert landscape that Todorova’s passion for this awe-inspiring environment was ignited\, guiding the core of her artistic expression. \nIn her art\, Todorova delves into the intricate interplay between the passage of time\, space\, and the intricate tapestry of memory. Her paintings are influenced by the Great Basin and the dynamic boom-and-bust built environment of the West\, blending elements of landscape and geometry. In her work\, Todorova blurs the boundaries between representation and abstraction. \n“In this exhibition\, I use the desert landscape as a metaphor for navigating life’s uncertainties. I invite viewers to contemplate their own paths\, acknowledging the moments when goals and reality may diverge. Drawing inspiration from the desert survival strategies like navigating by the stars and discerning mirages\, I seek to evoke a visceral experience of being lost\, ultimately finding solace in the shared human pursuit of traversing uncertainty.” For more information about the artist\, visit rossitza.art. \n

SUMMARY:Holland Emerge
DESCRIPTION:Emerge 2023 spotlights the works of four up-and-coming young artists from Northern Nevada who are all active participants in the arts community at the Holland Project. Abbay Anderson\, Nic Blauth\, Ruby Burge\, and Olivia Mier have all taken part in our Work In Progress art program and have contributed artwork to multiple Young Blood exhibitions at the Holland Project. We have had the great privilege of seeing their work grow and evolve over the past few years and it is exciting to witness them define their aesthetic and voice as artists. We are thrilled to be able to share their work in the McKinley Gallery and we can’t wait to see what is next on the horizon for each of these talented young artists. \nThe Holland Project is an all-ages arts and music initiative by young people\, for young people\, in the Truckee Meadows. Holland is non-profit\, volunteer-driven organization that produces more than 250 all-ages events annually in the Reno area. Governed by its members\, volunteer boards and our committees\, Holland seeks to propel Reno’s all-ages movement\, and wholeheartedly support and champion opportunities for young people in our community. \nHolland Project hopes to further identify Reno as a cultural center with a vibrant urban scene where art and music thrive. Holland fundamentally believes that music and art are vital forces\, and that young people have the ability and right to shape and share their culture. All-ages events and opportunities are an important part of any healthy and happening community\, and we’re proud to work to present all-ages offerings. \nGallery East\, located in McKinley Arts & Culture Center is one of three galleries operated by the City of Reno.

SUMMARY:Solo Exhibition "Learning to be Lost" by Reno City Artist Rossitza Todorova
DESCRIPTION:Reno\, NV – The Metro Gallery at Reno City Hall is hosting “Learning to be Lost\,” a solo exhibition by 2022-23 Reno City Artist Rossitza Todorova. The show will run from June 19 to August 4\, 2023\, and will showcase new paintings by Todorova that embrace the metaphorical concept of being lost within the desert landscape. \nRossitza Todorova\, a professional artist and Professor of Art at Truckee Meadows Community College in Reno\, Nevada\, has an interesting artistic journey that began when she emigrated from Sofia\, Bulgaria\, to Reno\, Nevada\, during her childhood. It was amidst the desert landscape that Todorova’s passion for this awe-inspiring environment was ignited\, guiding the core of her artistic expression. \nIn her art\, Todorova delves into the intricate interplay between the passage of time\, space\, and the intricate tapestry of memory. Her paintings are influenced by the Great Basin and the dynamic boom-and-bust built environment of the West\, blending elements of landscape and geometry. In her work\, Todorova blurs the boundaries between representation and abstraction. \n“In this exhibition\, I use the desert landscape as a metaphor for navigating life’s uncertainties. I invite viewers to contemplate their own paths\, acknowledging the moments when goals and reality may diverge. Drawing inspiration from the desert survival strategies like navigating by the stars and discerning mirages\, I seek to evoke a visceral experience of being lost\, ultimately finding solace in the shared human pursuit of traversing uncertainty.” For more information about the artist\, visit rossitza.art.

SUMMARY:Reception: Holland Emerge
DESCRIPTION:Emerge 2023 spotlights the works of four up-and-coming young artists from Northern Nevada who are all active participants in the arts community at the Holland Project. Abbay Anderson\, Nic Blauth\, Ruby Burge\, and Olivia Mier have all taken part in our Work In Progress art program and have contributed artwork to multiple Young Blood exhibitions at the Holland Project. We have had the great privilege of seeing their work grow and evolve over the past few years and it is exciting to witness them define their aesthetic and voice as artists. We are thrilled to be able to share their work in the McKinley Gallery and we can’t wait to see what is next on the horizon for each of these talented young artists. \nThe Holland Project is an all-ages arts and music initiative by young people\, for young people\, in the Truckee Meadows. Holland is non-profit\, volunteer-driven organization that produces more than 250 all-ages events annually in the Reno area. Governed by its members\, volunteer boards and our committees\, Holland seeks to propel Reno’s all-ages movement\, and wholeheartedly support and champion opportunities for young people in our community. \nHolland Project hopes to further identify Reno as a cultural center with a vibrant urban scene where art and music thrive. Holland fundamentally believes that music and art are vital forces\, and that young people have the ability and right to shape and share their culture. All-ages events and opportunities are an important part of any healthy and happening community\, and we’re proud to work to present all-ages offerings. \nGallery East\, located in McKinley Arts & Culture Center is one of three galleries operated by the City of Reno.

SUMMARY:NTI Traveling Exhibition Meaning Is Always Here Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:City of Reno City Hall \nMetro Gallery\nAugust 14 – October 6\, 2023 \nReception\, Thursday\, September 28\, from 5 – 7 p.m. \nReno\, NV– The City of Reno presents the NTI-Traveling Exhibition\, Meaning is always here. I started the curation of Meaning is Always Here by trying to imagine a persona the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art might present to Nevadans that live far away and cannot reach us. We at the Museum think we have a good sense of who we are\, but how do others perceive us? We shift. Our exhibitions change. Therefore\, this exhibition should show that change with artists from different backgrounds and media. The works should reference the real world and represent a transformation through the artists’ decisions\, so that we can see where they’re coming from. \nMeaning is always here…I think about the artworks that couldn’t be included in this traveling show for reasons of size or fragility. That artwork awaits you here\, at the Barrick Museum of Art. Visit us and see. \nExhibition artists include: Alexander Calder\, Candice Lin\, Chase R. McCurdy\, Kim Rugg\, Krystal Ramirez\, Lucio Pozzi\, Marshall Scheuttle\, Mary Cady Johnson\, Mikayla Whitmore\, Stephen Antonakos\, Tomoko Daido. \nThe Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art is pleased to loan this artwork from our permanent collection to the Nevada Arts Council. Our goal is to help broaden the Museum’s message that everyone deserves access to art that challenges our understanding of the present and inspires us to create a future that holds space for us all. \nABOUT: Curated by Deanna Sole\, Meaning is always here is part of the Nevada Touring Initiative– Traveling Exhibition Program. It was funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts and the State of Nevada. The Nevada Arts Council is a division of the Department of Tourism and Cultural Affairs. \nThe Metro Gallery at Reno City Hall is one of three galleries operated by the City of Reno and open to the public\, free of charge\, Monday-Friday\, 9:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. The Metro Gallery is accessible through City Hall’s main entrance on the 2nd floor of the City Hall parking garage located on the NW corner of First St. & Center St. To learn more about the exhibition\, visit art & culture at reno.gov. \nFor More information about the exhibition\, please contact or visit: \nhttps://www.nvartscouncil.org/programs/artist-services/nti/nti-exhibitions/meaning-is-always-here/ \n\nDeanna Sole\, Curator of NTI-Transformers Reshaping Form and Meaning\, deanne.sole@unlv.edu\nStephen Reid\, Artist Services Program Specialist\, Nevada Arts Council\, sreid@nevadaculture.org or 775.687.7108

SUMMARY:Reflections Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Reflections are concepts of perception and introspection. Many Mesoamerican cultures used obsidian to create reflective portals\, black mirrors\, into other worlds. Diving further into the esoteric\, the mirror has also brought a lot of anxiety and superstition through beliefs such as demons trapped behind its surface and the childhood game\, Bloody Mary. Vanity is another word that comes to mind when thinking of our reflections. You can see that in the tragedy of Narcissus falling in love with his own image and the clash of European industries in a race to perfect the looking glass due to popular demand. All in all\, our mirror images both allure and terrify us. We invite you to explore these dichotomies through the exhibiting artists’ work\, depicting and exploring the fantastical world of reflections! \nReception: September 30\, 2023 5:30pm-7:30pm. \nJuror \nMikayla Whitmore is an artist and photojournalist working within the vast realms of photography\, sculpture\, and activism. In conversation with landscape\, they utilize concepts of space & existentialism to convey their observations with the romanticization of the West\, queer experience\, and the appreciation of the sublime in the often mundane. Growing up in Las Vegas\, and after obtaining their Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography from the University of Nevada\, Las Vegas\, in 2010\, they have exhibited work nationally and internationally. A recent project includes the upcoming Live in America Performing Arts Festival at the Momentary Museum in Bentonville\, Arkansas. Their work can be found in various media\, including The New Yorker\, Vanity Fair\, The Wall Street Journal\, ESPN\, and High Country News. Mikayla is a member of Women Photograph\, a non-profit to elevate the voices of women and nonbinary visual journalists\, and a collaborator of the Mystery Ranch\, an art and ecology research station located near Searchlight\, Nevada.

SUMMARY:Artifacts of Introspection\, An Exhibition of Paintings by Joanna Drakos
DESCRIPTION:Joanna Drakos will be exhibiting her latest painting series\, “Artifacts of Introspection\,” at Sierra Arts Foundation Riverside Gallery\, in downtown Reno\, Nevada\, September 7-30\, 2023.  There will be an artist reception September 23\, 2023\, from 12 noon to 4:00 pm. \nA brief statement from the artist: “One year ago\, at the apex of summer heat\, I had the misfortune of suffering a heat-related illness. My recovery was slow\, and it began to affect my state of mind. All the while\, compounded by the unrelenting intensity of the extreme temperatures that affected my ability to perform daily tasks. I continued to paint in the refuge of my studio where I fantasized about escaping to a place of coolness\, comfort\, and hope. Using my painting practice to transport me\, I created the concept of Winter’s Realm as an antidote to the one-hundred degree temperatures outside. As the project progressed through the seasons\, my exploration of this escapist world took unexpected twists and turns. I emerged from a cool place\, through sunsets and solstices and entered the enveloping rich textures of a birch forest. The paintings traversed a path of escape and catharsis as the color palette and painting techniques evolved and shifted. The resulting series of paintings are best described as my Artifacts of Introspection. \nI paint my abstract canvases in an intuitive style that follows an intention that I’ve set for myself. I use various sensory input for artistic inspiration: music\, scent\, color\, atmospheric mood\, and inward mental explorations; what I like to call “falling down the rabbit hole” of thought. This is all a part of the therapeutic benefit I derive from painting. My anxious anticipation of the next summer and the next\, as temperatures continue an upward trajectory\, is not something I look forward to; but through painting\, I’ve found a way to cope. \nThis project is funded through a grant by the Nevada Arts Council and the National Endowment for the Arts.
