This reception at the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art welcomes three new exhibitions: “The Emotional Show,” “Lined and Torn: Paper Works from the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art Collection,” and “Tailings.”
“The Emotional Show” explores some of the different techniques artists have used to grapple with the amorphous and demanding territory of human emotions. “Lined and Torn” uses works from the Museum’s permanent collection to survey different methods of looking at paper as an art material. “Tailings,” an installation created by Jeannie Hua for the Window Gallery, critiques the historic treatment of Chinese American citizens in Tonopah and throughout the American West.
All three exhibitions are on view at the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art from August 28, 2023 – March 16, 2024. (Pictured: “Classified Digits” by Christine Sun Kim and Thomas Mader)
