香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 Gallery of Art and Design Announces New Donation, Exhibit

Written By: Ian Silvester

The 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 鈥� Fort Smith Gallery of Art and Design welcomes work by a former professor to its permanent collection and will showcase his works in an exhibit during the fall of 2023.
 
Gallery Director and Assistant Professor Dr. Matt Bailey is delighted to bring the extensive donation to 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 and the community, highlighting the artwork of Harold Keller (1928-2017). The exhibit, 鈥淗arold Keller: Portals,鈥� will be housed in the Windgate Art and Design exhibition gallery starting Sept. 8, following a public reception from 6-8 p.m. Guests can visit the exhibition weekdays, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. through the end of the fall semester, closing on Dec. 16.
 
Keller was born in Brooklyn, New York, and received a Bachelor of Arts in Art and Philosophy from the 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 in 1949. After graduating, he taught at several regional high schools before being hired at Fort Smith Junior College, where he taught from 1956 until 1962.
 
After leaving Fort Smith, Keller and his family returned to New York. In a sense, Keller鈥檚 work will once again call 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 home, conceptually, if not physically. Keller鈥檚 daughter, Victoria, donated the pieces from her late father: seven paintings, seven ceramic works, twenty-seven drawings, two artist books, and a collection of over 300 working drawings from across the artist鈥檚 career.
 
The public has never seen most of the work to be displayed because it was stored in the artist鈥檚 Greenwich, NY, studio. Bailey secured loans of Keller鈥檚 creation from private collectors along with the generous donation.
 
鈥淗is work is unique,鈥� Bailey explained. 鈥淚t鈥檚 a witty and erudite fusion of the fantastic and the everyday that really sticks with you.鈥�
 
The 鈥淗arold Keller: Portals鈥� exhibit will also feature a small catalog with essays by Bailey and Victoria Keller. The catalog will be published in November and accompanied by a talk by Bailey, examining Keller鈥檚 work from a historical perspective.
 
鈥淜eller was meticulous, a master craftsman, and extremely thoughtful in the themes and imagery represented. His work responds to the political and cultural climate of his everyday life. It will be great for students and the community to see his sophisticated themes in a specific exhibition narrative,鈥� Bailey shared.
 
Showcasing the impact of 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播, the exhibit will feature works from Keller鈥檚 time as a professor at the university. It includes drawings, ceramics, and a painting. Bailey detailed how the work displayed from the six years Keller spent at 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 demonstrates 鈥渁 time when he was really coming into his own as an artist.鈥�
 
Keller鈥檚 archives were given to the 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 Boreham Library Pebley Center in 2021. With the art collection, 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 becomes the largest repository of Keller鈥檚 work and 鈥渋mpactfully transforms and expands the University鈥檚 permanent art collection, building on the already excellent collection of contemporary art already acquired before I became the gallery director,鈥� Bailey touted.
