Marilyn Minter, Bloodshot , 2007 An image of one of my paintings is included in the exhibition catalogue for Creating the New Century , a special exhibition organized by The Dayton Art Institute, featuring 70 paintings, drawings, and sculptures - all created since the year 2000 - from the Dicke collection. Sixty-nine artists are represented by works that document the range of styles and technical concerns, as well as social and political issues, that engage artists in the 21st century. While many works are by well-known painters and sculptors who have participated in museum and gallery exhibitions and received reviews in arts periodicals, others are less well known in a selection characterized by the curiosity and tastes of the collector.

After the museum opening Scott and I are having a peaceful Easter weekend on the water.

The Prominence of Place, my exhibit at the Mobile Museum of Art, opened last night, and will run through August 28, 2011. Lectures, gallery tours, and other events are scheduled for July. After five years of making this body of work, it's good to see them all together with good lighting. If interested, there are several posts on this blog describing these works as a group and individually.
