Join us next Thursday June 11th from 6pm-8pm for the reception of our Reavivar exhibition! The event will be at Mountain View campus’s Cliff Gallery W134A.
 
About the show: This group exhibition is a celebration of Latino Dallas College artists and alumni that have donated to the Dallas College Permanent Art Collection. In the spirit of Reavivar—meaning “to revive” or “to rekindle”—each artist’s work from the Permanent Collection is paired with a more recent piece, highlighting their growth as professionals within the community while rekindling their connection to Dallas College Galleries. 
 
Participating artists include:
Francisco Josue Alvarado Araujo
Carlos Donjuan
Lucas Martell ._.martell

Dallas College Art Department—Brookhaven Campus is proud to announce the opening of “Unframed Unapologetic”, a site-specific group installation featuring the work of student artists under the curatorial direction of Professor Jen Gassiraro . “Unframed Unapologetic” represents a bold departure from traditional watercolor application. 
 
This large-scale collage installation rejects the limits of the frame and the “preciousness” of the medium, instead allowing vibrant, hand-cut botanical forms to sprawl across the gallery’s architecture. The work explores the tension between delicate material and dominant physical presence. Jen Gassiraro guided the cohort through the collaborative assembly process, pushing the artists to consider how individual fragments can develop in to a singular rhythmic environment. Under her direction, the students transformed hundreds of individual watercolors into a sprawling takeover that directly interacts with the gallery space. The show will be on display until May 1st and is located in D128, our Secondary Space Gallery.
 
Interested in taking the class? Look for ARTS2366 Watercolor Class in the Dallas College Course Catalog.
 
Artists included in the show: Sandra Douglas, Theodore Houston, Diana Krompass, Kelaome Kvale, Sung Lee, Young Lee, Judy Parr, Stephen Potter, Gertraud Reed, Judy Shaw, Mary Stack, Renee Taken, Christiane Tunnell, Jim Wright
