The Elements – Air
Main Gallery | May 26 – August 10, 2022
Reception | Thursday, May 26 | 5:30pm
AIR is the second exhibition in the series, The ELEMENTS. The series will investigate how artists utilize the elements of earth, fire, water, and air as medium, process, and subject. And how, as a subject, these elements reflect some of the social, economic, political, and environmental issues Arizona currently faces.
AIR is next. The exhibition EARTH came first, it featured the work of 41 Arizona artists. FIRE and WATER will follow. The sequence of the two remaining projects will be determined by the number and quality of the entries received.
The crux of each installment is to contemplate human presence and responsibility (or lack of); move toward, hover, and dig at the intersection of art and science, all the while remaining focused on medium, process, and subject; never losing sight of the beauty, wonder, and essence before you.
The Artists for AIR are:
David Adix, Michael Afsa, Carolee Asia, Kristie Atwood, Imo Baird, Bill Baker, Jan Bell, Alexandra Berger Clamons, Dennis Boyd, Katherine Burdick, Olivia Carey, David Christiana, Shari Coia, James Cook, Rick DeMont, Debra Goley, Liz Halsted, Dan Hansen, Lyn Hart, Tracy Ann Holmes, Brian Hooker, Kate Hoover, Erinn Kennedy, Irene Klar, William Lesch, Mark Mahaffey, Tom Martin, Paul Mirocha, Farraday Newsome, Len Poliandro, Jeff Reich, Kay Ross, Josh Schachter, Saralee Schneck, Dana Senge, C.J. Shane, Aimee Smythe, Lisa Swanson, Roger Ulrich, Paul Waid, Shelly White, Janet Windsor, and Nan Wollman
