Capital City Arts Initiative—Sidne Teske: A High Desert Tribute

Exhibition Dates: January 3, 2022 – April 13, 2023
Exhibition Venue: Bristlecone Gallery, Western Nevada College, 2201 W College Parkway, Carson City

In A High Desert Tribute, Teske presents paintings of dynamic landscapes and another series of compelling figure studies. Teske's thirty-six paintings offer a retrospective of art from 1995 – 2022. Working almost exclusively in soft pastels, she takes the scale of her landscapes and figure studies well-past traditional small compositions into large works that measure in square feet. Her active mark-making brings viewers into each composition while the dramatic large scale commands attention. Learn more at ccainv.org.

This program is supported in part by Nevada Humanities.
