Texas Art Supply Show

To the beat of jazz, Texas Art Supply Show shows works of 6 employees from Texas Art Supply, at Bohemeo’s. We were delighted with the trumpet of Jesse Campeon, drawings, and paintings. The show displays another side of the art scene, in which artist is defined through institutional training. But succeeds in displaying work from artists that love and work for art.

The photography of Everett Taasegiven searches the spirit of social justice. In Jena, Louisiana, he found the voices of a movement that emerged before time: the sounds of the oppressed. The exhibition portrays the reactions to the racial tensions that are experience by people in Jena, Louisiana, as well as other in areas of the United States.

We were delighted with the inspirational voice of Sunni Paterson. Her poetry is a unique combination of music, gestures, and strong belief in social change.

Impressions from The Joanna

The new show at The Joanna incorporates paintings, drawings, and a sculpture, from artists Jeanne and Reggie. The differences in their practice are complemented by the similarities of their palettes. In Jeanne’s glossy paintings, there is a captivating brightness married to layers of fabrics. Reggie’s drawings invite us to a playful and precise place, where even the most grotesque monster become beautiful.


Some of Reggie's paintings and a collaborative sculpture:
