SUMMARY:Texture: Proof of Presence
DESCRIPTION:Texture: Proof of Presence\, curated by Gail F. Enns and Christine Crozier\, centers on the experiences of three artists and a poet\, each of whom has had a unique relationship to the Monterey peninsula. Each has a story to tell\, and their work is imbued with various humanistic and social messages. However\, each artist uses texture in assertive ways that it becomes one of their work’s most attractive and important features. The exhibition is designed to promote cultural understanding\, community engagement\, and creativity. Workshops\, poetry readings\, and lectures by the artists\, curators\, and others will facilitate and enhance an understanding of the art presented in the exhibition. Patrick Frank\, well known arts writer and curator has written the catalog introduction. \n\n\n\nOctober 4\, 2024 through January 4\, 2025 \n\n\n\nOpening Reception: Friday\, October 4\, 5:30 – 7 pm \n\n\n\n5:30\, informal talk with Patrick Frank\, Author: Prebles ArtForms; Manifestos and Polemics in Latin American Modern Art; Art of the 1980s As If the Digital Mattered \n\n\n\n550 Central Ave.\, Pacific Grove(831) 648-5760www.pacificgrovelibrary.org \n\n\n\nSee all Texture events. \n\n\n\nTexture flyer. \n\n\n\n.Ruth Bolduan’s paintings fuse together her love of Chinoiserie\, the sea\, and the brilliant colors and elements of fantasy and romanticism found in Parisian art\, to create an evocation of shimmering evanescence\, an embodiment of the hidden and the revealed in art.Jacqueline Canterbury’s work revolves around salvaged clothing\, addresses social and political norms\, and questions conventional functions. Her work is mostly remade from historic textiles and wearable sources\, derived from flea markets\, thrift stores\, and antique shops.Lydia Nakashima Degarrod feels there are many similarities between the landscape vistas and flora of Chile\, where she was born\, and Pacific Grove. She visits the peninsula often to explore natural materials indigenous to both places to create the paper used in her three-dimensional Displacements\, an installation in the Texture\, Proof of Presence.Heidi McGurrin writes her poetry with a curiosity to find answers hidden in the shadows— apparent\, nearby\, and seemingly forbidden. She wonders about indigenous peoples\, their beauty\, their poverty\, and social injustice\, near and far away. She questions family roots and her relationship to the world she was born into. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSponsored by the Pacific Grove Library Friends and Foundation\, the Whitney Latham-Lechich Trust\, the Jean Laws Fund\, and Celadon Arts\, Texture\, Proof of Presence\, plans to bring a diverse group of visitors including students from the elementary as well as high school\, adults and seniors—locals and visitors from all over. During its three-month run\, there will be weekly events open to the public including a guest reception\, poetry readings\, talks\, workshops\, and demonstrations.
