Lanning and Turquoise Tortoise Galleries Feature Indoor Outdoor Art Exhibit
|
|
Enjoy a special joint celebration at Lanning Gallery and Turquoise Tortoise Gallery right in the heart of the Gallery District. Visitors will have the opportunity to views indoor and outdoor art by Dixie Jewett, Jonathan Howard, and William Spencer III, as part of the “Indoor, Outdoor, Next Door” exhibit. Dixie Jewett is the artist who welds the monumental horses that are so eye-catching outside Hozho Center and can be seen from Highway 179. Jewett is a rare breed of artist; once an Alaskan bush pilot she combines her mechanical skills of building and welding with an impeccable eye for artistic detail and the conformation of horses. Myriad found objects are joined into Jewett’s magnificent steeds; with a strong steel framework she welds everything from auto parts to farm equipment and washing machine parts to steel bumpers, into horses that can measure twelve feet high. The joy of Jewett’s horses is not only how realistic and alive with character each one is, but also how much fun it is to identify and relate to all the little bits. Inside Lanning Gallery artist Jonathan Howard is the featured artist and his paintings of urban scenes. Howard is an emerging artist with a singular style of existentialist surrealism that is capturing serious attention. His canvases are acrylic based, often with subtly layered elements of collage. “Cities, towns, and buildings are a telling extension [of ourselves], perhaps a portrait of humanity,” Howard has said. “You can see the good, bad, hopes, dreams, nightmares and ambitions of mankind through examining our urban footprint on the planet.” Next door, at Turquoise Tortoise Gallery, new-to-the-gallery artist William Spencer III's bright paintings are featured. The warm and compelling paintings combine organic tendrils and abstracted shapes with representational elements from cacti to horsemen. Most of the artist’s work is produced in acrylic, oil and resin silkscreen on plaster and panel. For Spencer, the meaning of each piece arises as much from within those who collect his works as from his own subconscious. “Indoor, Outdoor, Next Door” promises to be a very special exhibit held throughout the month of June! Hozho Center is located at 431 State Route 179 in Sedona.
