Exhibit Opening – Layers of Re-iteration: The Long Conversation
September 28 @ 9:00 am – 5:00 pm
Layers of Re-iteration: The Long Conversation is the second chapter of an evolving exhibition inspired by the enduring legacy of Galen Brown and Jim McCormick. Moving beyond tribute, it follows the quiet passage of ideas across our community, revealing how artistic lives continue through shared conversations, generous mentorship, and the countless creative exchanges that ripple outward long after the maker has left the room.
At the heart of that legacy was the Printmakers’ Conspiracy, a loosely organized collective founded by Candace Garlock, Jim McCormick and Nolan Preece that brought artists together through exhibitions, collaboration, and an unwavering commitment to one another’s practices. More than a printmaking group, it became a creative ecosystem where friendships were forged, ideas were tested, and artistic voices found encouragement. The Long Conversation extends that spirit, celebrating not only the work of two remarkable artists but the living community they helped create, one that continues to inspire new generations of makers.
An artists’ reception will be held on September 24, 5:30-7:30 p.m. The public is invited to meet the artists and enjoy light refreshments. The exhibit is available for view until December 16. The gallery is free and open to the public, Monday to Friday 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Located in the Bristlecone Building on the Carson City Campus, 2201 West College Parkway, Carson City.
