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

SUMMARY:Living in the Dessert
DESCRIPTION:Clark County Public Art is thrilled to announce our upcoming exhibition\, Living in the Dessert juried by Brian “Paco” Alvarez in the Rotunda Gallery\, nestled within the Clark County Government Center. \nA spin on the common misspellings of desert and dessert\, Living in the Dessert is an exhibition that fuses our arid environment with the indulgent treats that most enjoy eating — especially the cold variety during months like these! The artists selected portrayed this fusion in creative and innovative ways using a wide array of mediums. You will see work that either brings the desert into the denseness of desserts or desserts into the dreamscape of the desert! \nThis exhibition is juried by Las Vegas native Brian “Paco” Álvarez\, an entrepreneur\, anthropologist\, and CEO of Psionic Art Works. He holds a master’s degree in urban leadership from University of Nevada\, Las Vegas and a bachelor’s degree in anthropology\, and has worked at various institutions\, including the Liberace Museum\, Neon Museum\, and Zappos.com. \nExhibition Dates: Monday\, June 10\, 2024\, through Thursday\, July 18\, 2024 \nReception Event: Thursday\, July 18\, 2024\, from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. \nLocation: Clark County Government Center is located at 500 S.

SUMMARY:Queer Monuments
DESCRIPTION:Clark County Public Arts is proud to present Queer Monuments juried by Emily Budd. \nQueer Monuments challenges the classical masculine and cultish notions of monuments and provides a platform for ephemeral and anti-monumental alternatives. Monuments are popularly seen as works of art that share the stories of people\, convey societal values\, and remind us of people’s lived histories; they are objects of remembrance. Anti-monuments take these basic premises and reappropriate them to tell the resilient stories of LGBTQIA+ people. The artists in this exhibition present personal monuments to the queerness in their lives. \nSculptor Emily Budd will lead as the exhibition’s juror\, infusing her expertise and passion into the selection process. Budd’s sculptural practice\, driven by the pursuit of queer futurity and place-making\, has garnered acclaim for its transformative narratives. Her project\, Memorial for Queer Rhyolite\, stands as a poignant tribute to an era marked by the AIDS epidemic\, capturing the essence of Nevada’s queer utopian spirit. Budd’s groundbreaking work has been featured in respected publications such as The Washington Post and showcased on Discovery Channel’s Mysteries of the Abandoned: Hidden America. \nExhibition Dates: Tuesday\, June 11\, 2024\, through Thursday\, July 25\, 2024 \nReception Event: Thursday\, July 25\, 2024\, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. \nLocation: Winchester-Dondero Community Center is located at 3130 McLeod Drive\, Las Vegas NV 89121. The center is open Tuesday–Saturday\, 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. and closed Sunday and Monday. \nFor more information\, please visit: https://tinyurl.com/ccpublicarts or contact the Clark County Public Art Office at CCPublicArt@ClarkCountyNV.gov.

SUMMARY:Words + Images: Broadsides from the Black Rock Press
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition Run: April 16 – Aug. 2\, 2024\nThalia Dondero Gallery\, CEB 2nd floorGlenn & Ande Christenson School of Education Building\nNevada State University1300 Nevada State DriveHenderson\, NV 89002\nM-F 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. (Closed on July 4\, 2024)Free Parking\n\nNevada State University’s Office for the Arts presents “Words + Images: Broadsides from the Black Rock Press”\, featuring 34 broadsides produced at the Black Rock Press at the University of Nevada\, Reno using the letterpress process with handset type and relief plates. The printing was done on a Vandercook cylinder proofing press.\nSince it was founded by Kenneth J. Carpenter more than 40 years ago\, the Press has been dedicated to the practice and teaching of the arts and crafts associated with the creation of finely printed books. The Press now has a national reputation for its outstanding work and has become a living museum of traditional printing technology\, housing a variety of cabinets filled with metal type\, and a number of historically significant printing presses. Its centerpiece\, a gilded 1837 super-royal Columbian iron handpress\, is one of the finest examples of a nineteenth century iron handpress to be found anywhere in the country.\nLetterpress broadsides are created for numerous reasons\, frequently to honor a visiting writer at a campus event. The Press has produced broadsides to honor university residencies by U.S. poets laureate Robert Pinsky and Billy Collins. Several broadsides were printed in conjunction with a national poetry broadside competition held in the 1990s; winning poets received cash awards and had their poems printed as broadsides. In recent years\, broadsides have been produced for the Robert Laxalt Distinguished Writers Award\, presented annually by the university’s Reynolds School of Journalism. Each broadside features a quotation from the writings of Robert Laxalt\, one of Nevada’s finest writers. Most of the broadsides in this exhibit were designed and printed by Bob Blesse\, director of the Press. Others have also contributed\, including John Balkwill who was in residence as a book artist and printmaker at the Press during the mid-1990s. Former students assisted with the design\, production\, and illustration of the broadsides.\nBroadside writers include Marjorie Agosin\, Willis Barnstone\, Daniel Boorstin\, Andre Codrescu\, Billy Collins\, Hayden Curruth\, Carol V. Davis\, John Dofflemyer\, Joseph Duemer\, Gretel Ehrlich\, Martha Elizabeth\, A. Bartlett Giamatti\, Shaun T. Griffin\, James W. Hulse\, Linda Hussa\, Donna Johnson\, Robert Laxalt\, Wally McRae\, Joel Nelson\, Steven Nightingale\, Naomi Shahib Nye\, Gailmarie Pahmeier\, Robert Pinsky\, Kirk Robertson\, Gary Short\, Kevin Stevens\, Bill Stobb\, Michael White\, Terry Tempest Williams and Paul Zarzyski.\nABOUT Curated by Bob Blesse with Gallery Notes essay by Harry Reese and organized by the Nevada Arts Council\, “Words + Images: Broadsides from the Black Rock Press”\, is part of the Nevada Touring Initiative–Traveling Exhibition Program. It was funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts\, the Nevada Humanities\, and the Nevada State Legislature and an anonymous donor. The Nevada Arts Council is a division of the Department of Tourism and Cultural Affairs.###\nFor more information please contact:Stephen Reid – Artist Services Specialist\, Art Installer Nevada Arts Council I 775.687.7108 sreid@nevadaculture.org.
