The snow has melted at last!  And just in time:  this week marks the final few days of our exhibition "Currency" by photograper and Georgetown College art professor Darrell Kincer, capped off with a closing reception for the artist this Friday, February 28, from 5:00 until 7:00pm.  So, if you haven't made it in to see this show yet there is still time; and if you have, now's your chance the meet the artist and mingle with art-loving friends.  (And for the many photograpers among you, this is a chance to find out how Darrell works his amazing darkroom magic to create these images.)

As the exhibition title suggests, "Currency" features silver gelatin prints of imagery and iconography from U.S. dollar bills.  Not only does this show highlight the artistry of engraving in these familiar objects (well, at least I'm familiar with the lower denominations), but by calling attention to whom and what we choose to honor on our money, these pictures raise questions about our national history and mythology.  (For instance, one viewer has already called attention to the lack of women in these images.  Time that Lady Liberty had some company!)  In short, it does what art is supposed to do, both delighting and provoking. 

GALLERY DIRECTIONS:  There’s a map of our location on our gallery web site at JaneChancellorMooreGallery.com.  We're located in the lobby of Kentucky Employees Credit Union, just off the East-West Connector (Hwy 676) at Glenns Creek Road.  Coming from the west end, take the E-W Connector from US127 and turn right at the first stoplight after you cross the river; from the east end, take the E-W Connector from US60 and turn left at the second stoplight.  Coming from elsewhere in Frankfort, turn onto Martin Luther King Blvd from East Main and cross through the intersection with the E-W Connector.  Any way you come, the entrance to the credit union (Moore Drive) will be ahead on your left.

For more information (or better directions!) call Broadstone at (502) 223-4415 or KECU at (502) 564-5597.

Currency Reception in Frankfort, 2/28/14

I have a small show of new work in Frankfort, KY titled Currency. It is an extension of work I had done in the past, using U.S. currency to produce cliché verre prints in the darkroom and process them using mordançage. This was one of the last projects I completed while on sabbatical last semester.

If you have opportunity, I'd love to see you at the closing reception. And yes, the gallery is in a bank!

Red Herring, Exhibition Featuring Georgetown Alumni This Friday at LoT in Lexington

On view at Land of Tomorrow, Lexington
Closing reception at 5pm on Friday, April 27th

Land of Tomorrow, in coordination with the University of Kentucky Fine Arts Department, is pleased to announce Red Herring, an exhibition of recent graduate level work by Jackson Bullock, Peggy Coots, Michael J. Hamilton, Ivy Johnson, Trey Jolly, David N. Martin, and Mayuresh Moghe, produced under instructor Joel Feldman. There will be a closing reception on Saturday, April 27th at 5pm.

Red Herring – A fallacy in which an irrelevant topic is presented to divert attention from the original issue.

Each of the artists in this exhibition and their instructor often explore issues of red herring in terms of art making, whether consciously or unconsciously. Although the artists individually explore their own red herring and how it relates to their art making, they acknowledge that their understanding of the term may differ from one another, the instructor, and their audience. The title of this exhibition can possibly be viewed as the group’s communal red herring.
