Art Events this week

UPDATE -- Joe had to cancel today's lecture due to the foul weather -- he's rescheduled for next Tuesday.

A couple things this week: first off, today Joeseph DeLappe will be giving a talk in the art building at 4pm. He's a new media artist and Professor of Digital Art at UNR -- his work is fascinating and it promises to be a great talk. His website is here.


And this Thursday, there's a reception for art faculty Kat Hutter's solo show at the McKinley Art Center in Reno. Kay says: "Please come see my latest work 'revolving' around ideas and symbols of power covered and 'prettified' in our society." Here's the info:

Kat Hutter, Tahoe & Guns

I don't know if Kat's being shy or just busy, but she got a nice write-up in Moonshine Ink this week.


From the article:

... it wasn’t until graduate work at Clemson that Hutter’s signature style today developed. A lot of thinking in the studio drew her eye to the objects around her: tape, paint cans and other artist supplies. She began experimenting with symbols and repetition through stenciling. “For me, that’s where things started clicking,” Hutter says. “I was looking for this big idea about why I paint, but instead found myself drawn to banal, everyday items.”
