September–November Shows

Sterling Allen: Backdrop & Blocker
September 8 - October 22, 2017
O'Quinn Gallery

In this solo presentation by Sterling Allen, the Austin-based artist creates a site-specific sculpture-based installation that activates sight lines, architectural relationships, hanging conventions, and spatial connections, all while celebrating pop, the handmade, function, failure and the cheap illusion. Essay by Betsy Huete.

Katherine Trimbl: Touch box
September 8 - October 22, 2017
Project Space

When does a sound become music? When does language break down into sound? What happens to live music if you can't see the performer? Houston-based artist and musician, Katherine Trimble asks her audience to contemplate the breakdown of sounds in an immersive site-specific installation entitled Touch Box.

Lynn Randolph: Between Worlds
Curated by Susie Kalil
October 6, 2017 – January 21, 2018

Between Worlds responds to Randolph’s ongoing work with palliative care patients at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center. Comprised of approximately twenty drawings, these painstakingly rendered works deftly combine elements of the weird and scientific with acute psychological and metaphoric realism and builds bridges to the spiritual.
