July Gallery Stroll : The Modern West

21 July 2023 
Please join us for our Opening Artist Reception of The Modern West, this Friday, July 21, 2023, from 6-8 PM.

The Modern West highlights artists whose practice embodies our mission of creating thoughtful dialogue and reframing our understanding of the West. Each of these artists, all currently residing or having lived in Utah, create works that speak to their identity and have influenced the next generation of creatives.

This exhibition features works by Fidalis Buehler, Rebecca Campbell, Angela Ellsworth, Moana Palelei Iose, Jiyoun Lee-Lodge, Mitch Mantle, V. Kim Martinez, Antra Sinha, Eugene Tapahe and Xi Zhang, and will be on display from July 21 through September 30, 2023.

Our upstairs gallery will emphasize the works of Fidalis Buehler, an artist who has epitomized the spirit of The Modern West through exhibiting his work, teaching, and connecting artists and their communities. Buehler’s personal process of working in a variety of mediums has been integrated into his pedagogy, challenging his students to discover new methods of expression. In honor of Buehler’s influence, we will be featuring a selection of prints by his MFA students alongside his own work.

We look forward to celebrating these artists and this important show with you.
