by Laura Durham On October 17 and 18 Squashworks will exhibit Four Generations of American Painting, featuring the artwork of Dave Hall , his father Vernon Hall, his grandmother Esther Bailey Hall, and his great-great grandfather Thomas H.

I made it to the stroll this month. I raced home from work (in a shower), showered (in my shower), donned the appropriate black garb, and raced back downtown. And found . . . Willamarie Huelskamp and Pilar Pobil hanging at the Utah Arts Council’s Rio Gallery. These […]

The exhibition began with an empty space — one of the best in Salt Lake City. Artspace Forum Gallery offered Artists of Utah the opportunity to create a unique exhibition featuring Utah artists 35 or under. With support from the Salt Lake City Arts Council and other sponsors, […]
There are few competitions like it in Utah: Your reputation is irrelevant. Your resume is immaterial. There is no entry fee. Any Utahn 18 years or older has a fair chance. First-time applicants may get juried in; strong, well-known artists may get juried out. The artwork must stand […]
