CENTER GALLERY
A Hand Carved Story | Karen Olanna

This show, A Hand Carved Story, was conceived after finding and printing my very old woodblocks. I corralled these old and newly carved prints into a made up storyline, which should be viewed in sequence (an extended version in book form is also available). No words are needed, as block printing remains a unique record of life through the hand's ability to express.

NORTH GALLERY
Our Daily Bread | Scott McDonald

The work for this show began while living in Spain. It began after the January 20 inauguration, and concluded a year later in Anchorage. Although it is not all specifically related it follows a thread: our dependence on and skepticism of media, our growing divides, the fear of the future, the polarity of our beliefs. I’m a big picture thinker, nothing is specific. I’ve been interested in the intersection of art and propaganda, and expression versus communication. I’ve been doomscrolling, I’ve been rubbernecking the headlines, mouth agape. I’m trying to digest it.

SOUTH GALLERY
This is j.Reto
Portal Series: Love

This is j.Reto is a continuation of the Portal Series of kinetic spaces (b&w stripes) with inanimate objects (rock-like forms). Here I challenged myself to produce inspired, informed and reimagined versions of classic works by Marc Chagall, Gustav Klimt and René Magritte, to name a few. The purpose is to explore the possibilities and expand the visual and conceptual language of this series. Thank you to all the local artists who inspire and challenge me to reach deep and express fully.
