Flights of Fancy! (And more) / by Lex Gjurasic

Well, this is fancy! Flights of Fancy! It’s the recent edition of Southwest Contemporary Magazine which features not just my new work but tons of amazing stuff by dynamic southwestern contemporary artists. Order your copy now. And check out SWC’s website as a great resource for art in this region, especially valuable if you are planning a visit. Thanks for including me SWC! 🏜🙏🏻💕🌵

Excited to be included in the juried portrait exhibition I Am You, You Are Me, which can be viewed virtually HERE and in person in Scottsdale, AZ at the Civic Center Public Gallery. Thank you Scottsdale Public Art for being so supportive of my work.

Much like the year 2020 the virtual exhibition Picturing 2020: A Community Reflects has ended but is not forgotten. And like anything that lives it survives online lives forever and you can still view this exhibtion with the UA Museum of Art. This exhibtion opportunity along with the talk I gave really has been a lodestar for me in many ways. Thank you to the UA Museum of Art staff and friends for making sharing my pandemic made art possible so early on in this missagash. Take a look here.

One more delightful bit of news, recently I was nominated for a Governor’s Award for visual art by Citizens for the Arts. Though I didn’t move along in the process it truly was an honor to be acknowledged by being nominated.
