SUMMARY:FINAL WEEK: Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty
DESCRIPTION:In Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty\, the exhibition explores in detail the myriad image choices Minter has made as a painter and photographer\, the evolution of her style and technique\, and her mode of production\, including her organization of an unusual studio of assistants trained to create hyper-real\, sometimes dizzyingly painted surfaces. Pretty/Dirty illustrates Minter’s progress from a curious youth looking critically at the domestic landscape before her to the media-savvy cultural producer whose images simultaneously define and critique our times. \nFrom the beginning of her career\, Minter has been embroiled in controversies over the relationship of her art to feminism\, fashion\, and celebrity. As her own profile as an artist interested in these vexed cultural intersections has grown\, her work has risked looking as effortless as a mirror held up to the most supercilious aspects of today’s “bling” lifestyle. Yet Minter’s work is not merely a mirror of our culture\, and this exhibition provides\, for the first time\, a critical evaluation of her practice as an astute interpretation of our deepest impulses\, compulsions\, and fantasies. \nIncluded with MCA Denver admission \nMore info: http://mcadenver.org/marilynminter.php

DESCRIPTION:This opening reception is free and open to the public. \nArtists: Gonzo\, Caroline Pooler\, Risa Murray\, Rose Henderson\, Carrol Reeves\, Raverro Stinnett\, Roosheika Seward\, Sharon Morrison\, Charles Tunstall\, Barbara Johnson. \n(R)evolver provides a platform for Reach artists to present their own views regarding revolution and evolution as forces of change in society\, culture and politics. \nRedLine’s Reach Studio is an opportunity for socially engaged artists to collaborate\, create\, and share ideas in an inclusive community. This exhibition has been made possible by the generous support of the Buck Foundation\, Colorado Creative Industries\, Community Development Institute\, Rocky Mountain College of Art + Design\, Sidney E. Frank Foundation – Colorado Fund\, and the Scientific & Cultural Facilities District. \nR/Evolution is a series of exhibitions\, programs\, events\, and community installations that examines the relationship between social revolution and cultural or political evolution.

In this current political climate\, how are contemporary artists exploring or helping to contextualize and digest local\, national\, or global issues through their creative practice? Historically\, revolutions have paved the way for evolutions in social and cultural discourses and introduced new public policies. This exhibition and program series explores how this phenomenon is occurring in current contemporary art practice. \nMore info: http://redlineart.org/art/events/exhibitions/revolver.html
