欧美视频's Cyrus M. Running Gallery will host a public reception for its current art exhibition, “Placeholding,” from 4-5:30 p.m. Tuesday, Sept. 24, with remarks from the artist at 4:30 p.m.
“Placeholding” features media like printmaking, installation, and drawing to investigate how local and invasive flora, along with shifting light, shape our sense of fitting in. The work explores the changing landscape of southeastern Minnesota, including prairie and oak savannah.
The artist, Jade Hoyer, is a multimedia artist whose work addresses questions of gender, multiracial identity, and social privilege. Hoyer is based in Northfield, Minnesota, where she is an assistant professor of art at Carleton College.
Hoyer’s art is on display at the Museum at Texas Tech University’s Artist Printmaker Research Collection, the Association of Pinoy Printmakers, Philippines, and the Museu da Gravura de Curitiba, Brazil. She has been recognized by organizations including Minnesota State Art Board, the Windgate Foundation, the Cultural Center of the Philippines, and Brown University’s Center for Study of Race and Ethnicity in America.
