SUMMARY:Preview\, Artist Talk & Opening Reception: Homesickness: On Longing and Loss
DESCRIPTION:The College of Southern Nevada\, School of Arts and Letters\, Department of Fine Arts and Art Gallery Program would like to invite you to engage with artist and North Central College Assistant Professor of Art\, Whitney Sage this Thursday\, September 28 at 6pm as she participates in a special Preview\, Artist Talk\, and Opening Reception with refreshments in conjunction with her Artspace Gallery Exhibition\, Homesickness: On Longing and Loss. Homesickness: On Longing and Loss is on display now and will run through Saturday\, December 2\, 2023\, in the Artspace Gallery on the North Las Vegas Campus of the College of Southern Nevada. \nWhitney Sage earned her Bachelor’s degrees in Art Education and Painting from Miami University in Oxford\, Ohio and her M.F.A. in Studio Art from the Sam Fox School of Visual Art at Washington University in St. Louis. Her work\, which includes practices of painting\, drawing\, sculpture\, fibers and installation\, has previously been featured in solo exhibitions at Buckham Gallery\, Indiana University East\, Pump House Arts Center\, Workhouse Arts Center\, Art Reach Mid-Michigan\, ROY G BIV and Ripon College. A selection of Sage’s recent work has been featured in notable group exhibitions at UICA\, the Painting Center\, Superfront LA Gallery\, the Lexington Art League\, the Muskegon Museum of Art\, the Kennedy Art Museum and the Dennos Museum Center. Sage has been an artist-in-residence at the Vermont Studio Center\, Studios Midwest\, AIR Studio Paducah\, Wave Pool\, Millimetre Press and Popp’s Packing. Her creative work has been featured in a number of publications including Manifest Gallery’s INDA 14\, Refract Journal\, Hour Detroit Magazine\, WomanArts Quarterly Journal\, Newfound Journal\, Maake Magazine\, and the Post-Industrial Complex catalog\, published by the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit as a survey of makers in the Detroit area. \nWhen discussing her work\, Sage asserts\, “Homesickness: On Longing and Loss\, focuses its lens on the sprawling neighborhoods of Detroit and Highland Park\, Michigan. Stylistically modeled after tintype photography\, the work co-opts the visual iconography and traditions of landscape for its ability to reflect the larger cultural ideals and shifts of its time. Having grown up in suburban Detroit\, I’ve witnessed first-hand the region’s bellwether relevance to the ways our nation’s post-industrial economy\, geographic sprawl and affinity for consumption continues to leave behind communities in its wake. Through the depiction of failing or absent architecture\, the works address the many challenges facing urban and rural communities nationwide: the availability of safe\, affordable housing\, the maintenance of stable and dense neighborhoods\, and the disappearance of recognizable homeland and along with it\, the erasure of communal and familial histories.” \nThe CSN Artspace Gallery is free\, family friendly\, and open to the public. Gallery hours are from 8 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday. The Artspace Gallery is upstairs above the main entrance lobby on the North Las Vegas campus located at 3200 E. Cheyenne Avenue\, one-mile East of I-15 North.    \nMore about Sage can be found on her website\, https://whitneysage.com/

SUMMARY:“Earth Rise\,” by Mark Brandvik Public Art Dedication in Moapa Valley Community Center
DESCRIPTION:Join us and Commissioner Marilyn Kirkpatrick next Wednesday\, November 1st from 5 PM to 7 PM for the dedication of “Earth Rise\,” a public art sculpture by Mark Brandvik. \nLocation:\nMoapa Valley Community Center\n320 N. Moapa Valley Boulevard\nOverton\, Nevada 89040 \n“Earth Rise” by Mark Brandvik serves as a gateway to Michael Heizer’s renowned land art piece\, “Double Negative\,” located 8 miles east of the Moapa Valley Community Center. The sculpture’s captivating composition of steel forms pays homage to Heizer’s groundbreaking work\, reflecting the forces of excavation and erosion. It also draws inspiration from the nearby landscape’s landforms and archaeology\, while celebrating the American spirit of discovery from the Space Age. \nThe Moapa Valley Community played an invaluable role in the creation of “Double Negative”. Now\, over 50 years later “Earth Rise”\, the sculpture is a tribute to their contribution. Situated on the property of the Moapa Valley Community Center\, the artwork features subtle glyphs etched into the weathered steel\, honoring the Valley and its people who have warmly welcomed art enthusiasts from around the world for over half a century. \nMark Brandvik\, a native of Las Vegas\, has a BFA from the University of Nevada\, Las Vegas\, and an MFA from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill\, Brandvik has received numerous grants\, commissions\, and residencies for his art. His work has been exhibited extensively across the United States\, Canada\, and Europe. In addition to his art practice\, Brandvik has been teaching studio art since 1997 at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill\, the University of Nevada\, Las Vegas\, and the College of Southern Nevada. He currently resides and maintains a studio in downtown Las Vegas. \nMarkbrandvik.com

SUMMARY:On Instinct: New Work by Ashley Gottlieb
DESCRIPTION:“On Instinct” is an exhibition of new work by Reno-based artist Ashley Gottlieb. The exhibition will run from November 4 to December 31\, 2023 at the South Valleys Library Art Gallery in Reno\, NV. \nThe public is invited to an artist reception on Wednesday\, November 15 from 5:30-6:30 pm at the South Valleys Library. \nLearn more at the show at https://www.ashleygottlieb.com/portfolio-1/oninstinct \nContact the artist with inquires at hello@ashleygottlieb.com \nArtist Statement for “On Instinct”: \n“On Instinct” is a collection of artworks developed using an automatic drawing technique that allows my primal urge to create freewheeling\, nonsensical shapes to run wild\, all while continuing to take a thoughtful approach to uncover the composition’s balance through color. What results is a personal journey of instinctual shape-making combined with audacious color palettes\, forming unexpected and energetic arrangements. \nThis series emerged as a response to frustration within the initial stages of my creative process for my next series. I had been grappling with a self-imposed expectation that my work needed more polish or less “strangeness\,” which only led to creative pressure and overthinking every decision. This led to a painful sketching process and rather boring compositions. I decided to stop forcing square pegs into round holes and instead followed my gut to sketch something from a natural state of flow. What transpired was exhilarating – playfulness\, movement\, energy\, and an elusive balance among the diverse shapes\, all while suggesting a hint of instability. These traits\, in conjunction with color\, remain at the heart of my ongoing artistic exploration and ignite my inner creativity. \nIn addition to my exploration of shape\, balance and color\, I aim to transport the viewer to an alternate realm\, one that is uniquely personal to each individual. While I have no specific realm in mind\, I envision it as a joyful and playful space. In many ways\, the artworks in “On Instinct” serve as psychological association tests. I invite you to embark on a personal journey when viewing each piece. Where does it take you? What do you see? Don’t overthink it. Just go with your instinct.

SUMMARY:Visiting Artist Lecture: Abigail Lucien
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with the exhibit “Toward a Tangled Turn: Knots\, Nets\, Threads\, & Loops” at currently open in Sheppard Contemporary at UNR\, the Department of Art\, Art History\, & Design is pleased to welcome Visiting Artist Abigail Lucien to give a free and public lecture on her work. \nAbigail Lucien is a Haitian-American interdisciplinary artist whose work addresses themes of (be)longing\, futurity\, myth\, and place by considering our relationship to inherited colonial structures and systems of belief/care. Working across sculpture\, literature\, and time-based media\, Lucien’s practice is auto-ethnographic: referencing found objects and familiar surroundings as a way to implicate the body’s relationship to material and place—interpreting concepts such as loss\, love\, and grief as a fluid procession rather than a state to reach or become. \nLucien received the 2023 Sondheim Award\, was named to the 2021 Forbes 30 Under 30 list\, is a recipient of a 2023 Ruby’s Award\, 2021 VMFA Fellowship and the 2020 Harpo Emerging Artist Fellowship. Past exhibitions include SculptureCenter (NY)\, MoMA PS1 (NY)\, MAC Panamá (Panamá)\, Tiwani Contemporary (London)\, Atlanta Contemporary (Atlanta\, GA)\, Frost Art Museum (Miami\, FL)\, and The Fabric Workshop and Museum (Philadelphia\, PA). Residencies include Skowhegan School of Painting & Sculpture (Madison\, ME)\, Amant Studio & Research Residency (NY)\, the Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Fine Arts (Wrocław\, Poland)\, The Luminary (St. Louis\, MO)\, Santa Fe Art Institute (Santa Fe\, NM)\, ACRE (Steuben\, WI)\, and Ox-Bow School of Art & Artist Residency (Saugatuck\, MI). \nLucien is currently based between Baltimore\, MD and Brooklyn\, NY and teaches as an Assistant Professor of Sculpture at Hunter College in NYC.

SUMMARY:"Toward a Tangled Turn: Knots\, Nets\, Threads\, & Loops" Closing Reception
DESCRIPTION:Closing Reception and Gallery Viewing of Exhibition. \nSpecial Event Parking available in Whalen Parking Garage. \nLoosely and carefully woven together\, this group art exhibition curated by Austin Pratt features a wide-ranging collection of artworks that point or speak to the ideas of ‘knots\, nets\, threads\, & loops’. This open and poetic meditation on form (physical or otherwise)\, invites reflection on paradox\, ambiguity\, mystery\, and metaphor. From avant-garde electronic noise music through to traditional indigenous woven and beaded baskets; from archival collection of global folk games and narrative devices to contemporary painting and sculpture\, this exhibition examines these guiding and tangled forms in many possible ways: as intellectual curiosities\, mental models or frames\, mathematic diagram\, functional and material tools\, or totemic magical and spiritual objects\, each discrete but non-trivial. Many of these themes and threads here approach analytic concepts and questions from the field of topology\, a branch of pure mathematics. In topology\, geometric forms such as knots and loops are studied and questioned by how they react to various changes. Despite warping\, bending\, twisting\, and stretching\, some properties of geometric objects do not depend on their exact shape\, but how they are put together\, and what is preserved. An object such as the Mobius Strip – a simple\, twisted band\, becomes an infinite single-sided loop\, and serves as an indicative example of a topological curiosity. Knots\, in their numerous spatial complexities\, are another. Walking a more poetic path\, the forms of ‘knots\, nets\, threads & loops’ can be understood through a metaphoric or archetypal perspective. The Buddhist metaphor of life’s Endless Knot\, unifying wisdom and compassion\, or the ancient concept of Eternal Return\, both question the possible recurring and cyclical looping concept of life and time. The psychological and cultural character of the trickster\, throughout world traditions\, resonates metaphorically in roads\, paths\, journeys\, crossroads\, and other in-between sites\, serving as an emblem of sacred messenger\, writer\, boundary-crosser\, rule-breaker\, genius and fool. Mythic characters such as Hermes\, Mercury\, Eshu\, Coyote\, and Bugs Bunny inhabit this tricky place\, finding salience in the twisting journey of a road or labyrinth\, or in the intersecting points in a net or network; crossing boundaries\, breaking rules\, or delivering important messages\, for worse or for better. Toward a Tangled Turn is equal parts mathematic precision and fuzzy dream\, ruminating on questions of mind\, matter\, space\, and time. As part of University Galleries’ mission to serve as an educational and community hub\, this semester-long exhibition invites students and faculty to engage with the themes or artworks in the show in their own coursework as a way to form dialogue among various disciplines. Faculty are invited to visit the exhibit with their classes\, or use the gallery to create prompts for writing projects\, studio work\, or discussions. As an example\, this Fall\, UNR Professor of Mathematics Stanislav Jabuka will be teaching the first-ever course on Knot Theory at UNR. Throughout the semester\, University Galleries’ will be hosting the Visiting Artists & Scholars Lecture Series\, several of which are directly related to the exhibition. In the spirit of this interdisciplinary engagement\, on October 12\, there will be a panel discussion between UNR Professor of Mathematics Christopher Herald and exhibiting visiting artist Julian Hoeber.

SUMMARY:Elaine Parks: Fossils and Bones
DESCRIPTION:Fossils and Bones is a series of ceramic sculptures intended as a reflection on the desert walk where one encounters remains—bones of long dead animals and relics of the past. Desert finds are special and rare and highlight the desire to establish origin and story. The artworks are invented forms created to resemble familiar found bones that defy actual recognition. The exhibition offers a contrasting view of the idea that the desert is an empty\, desolate place\, that instead it is a rich and varied environment if we take the time to look. \nFossils and Bones\, runs from Novemeber 4 through January 14\, 2024. \n \n

SUMMARY:From the Beginning to the End
DESCRIPTION:Biblically inspired paintings of the beginning and the end by Dayo Adelaja\, Bill Bon\, Harold Bradford\, Dyron Boyd\, Jeannie Earhart\, Adolfo Gonzalez\, Cecilia Lary\, and Rita Maroun. \nOver seven years ago some of the artists from Left of Center Art Gallery started meeting on Saturday mornings to have morning prayer and breakfast at my home before heading over to the gallery. One of our greatest blessings is the fact that we were all given the gift of art. We wanted to give thanks to God and glorify Him in some way\, for this awesome talent that we all share. We began to think about ways we could interpret certain events that occurred in scripture and translate them into our paintings. There are floods of subject matter within the scriptures\, and it can be challenging to tell the stories visually. \nThe main reason we chose to title this show From the Beginning to the End is because the paintings are primarily based on the book of Genesis\, which is the first book of the Bible\, and the book of Revelations\, which is the last. With the current events happening all over the world\, we have been asked whether we had premonitions that prompted these paintings. My answer is\, we have all had premonitions\, and we are choosing to tell the stories from our own perspectives\, hoping to leave a lasting impression upon the viewer. \n~ Harold Bradford \nOn exhibit at Sahara West Library from December 8\, 2023 through February 24\, 2024 \nReception on Thursday\, December 14 from 5-7 p.m.

SUMMARY:Shellise Berry: Creation\, Promises\, & Instructions
DESCRIPTION:Shellise Berry creates vibrant paintings intended to emanate a sense of peace\, hope\, and serenity. Her process of layering colors by making marks produces a painting with the purpose of telling a story that is spiritual and thought provoking. Her art is a combination of three styles; the non-naturalistic color use of Fauvism\, the spontaneous brush strokes of Abstract Expressionism\, and the focus of Symbolism on embedded meaning or ideas. The finished paintings are modern interpretations of stories from the Bible\, and evidence of the artist’s deep relationship with her faith. \nberrysdivinedesigns.com \nOn exhibit at West Las Vegas from January 18\, 2024 through April 2\, 2024 \n

SUMMARY:Lee Lanier: You Write the Story
DESCRIPTION:Lee Lanier\, of Lee Lanier Paints Art Gallery located in the Arts Factory\, has created this interactive exhibit inviting viewers to write the narratives for his quirky\, acrylic paintings. Lanier created the exhibit based on his opinion that visitors to LLPAG often had more interesting interpretations of his paintings than he did. The characters in the paintings interact with surrounding objects or each other\, and are often based on mythological\, literary\, or pop-culture archetypes. Although these paintings are narrative in nature\, they present scenes midway through a particular tale so that the viewer can decide what is transpiring. \nARTIST STATEMENT \nI am fascinated with old stories. The inspiration for my works almost always starts with a historical\, literary\, and mythological character. Like Renaissance artists\, I weave complex narratives with multiple posed figures. I am drawn to universal human themes such as life and death\, temptation and faith\, and creativity and industry. My end goal is to create works of art that can be viewed multiple times while inspiring spirited conversations among groups of dissimilar viewers. \nOn exhibit at Windmill Library from February 13\, 2024 through April 28\, 2024
