WEST - The Effect of Land and Space

Modern West Fine Art Opens Group Exhibition

“WEST” The effect of land and space
Eleven women artists who take inspiration from the American West

July 20th - August 31st, 2018
Opening Reception, Friday, July 20th, 6:00-9:00 pm

Modern West Fine Art is thrilled to be featuring “WEST” The effect of land and space. We have invited our women artists to consider what the West means to them and how it influences their work. The American West imbues distinct feelings. The emptiness, space and possibility for solitude are — if not unique characteristics — distinguishing factors that are impossible to ignore. The West — an expanse of land and sky, saturated with silence and stillness — provides an environment that demands attention and instills the desire to be present. Here are conditions that stir the senses and give space for creation to ignite.

Featuring:
Liberty Blake, Shalee Cooper, Rebecca Campbell, Al Denyer, Kiki Gaffney, Jann Haworth, Suzanne Hill, Petecia Le Fawnhawk, Courtney Leonard, Beatrice Mandelman and Jody Plant
