Nevada Neighbors VI: Wednesday, March 3, 2004
7 pm Carson City Library
"Portland Possibilities"
Curator Stuart Horodner
public reception beginning at 6:15 pm. Free and open to the public!
Dominant institutions, funding, collecting, and alternative scenes are all a part of what is happening here, states Mr. Horodner, speaking of Portland's dynamic art scene. His talk will focus on artists working in the Portland area. He comments: I think these artists are doing special things--conceptually, with regard to craft, installation and subject matter. This includes the DIY (do it yourself) strategies that contemporary artists are using to empower themselves.
