Mark Sijan: Ultra Realistic Sculptures
Jun 16 - Aug 8 2010
Marc Sijan, a Milwaukee artist, has carefully studied and modeled the human form for more then 20 years. Since his days as an undergraduate at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, he has become totally immersed in the human form as a subject. Although Marc Sijan’s creative talents are extensive he is best known for his ultra-realistic sculpture. Sijan’s sculptures are "homages to humanity’s fascination with its own forms -- a fascination which has compelled artists throughout the millennia to mirror life in virtually every medium." Sijan’s figures are incredibly lifelike, sensuous and graceful. In fact, they are so life like, they seem always on the verge of movement, a mere instant away from action.
The pores in the skin, the tiny hairs, and veins; even the bald spots, the blemishes, the individual shapes of the faces that make human beings so similar, yet so unique. These are the essence of what makes Marc Sijan’s work so arresting. The exhibition features five full size figures, two torsos, and 10 wall mounted portraits.
Admission and parking is FREE!

Accelerate: A Juried Exhibition of 15 Emerging Artists with Disabilities
Jun 16 - Sep 12 2010
For the eighth year, VSA arts and Volkswagen Group of America, Inc., partnered to recognize emerging artists with disabilities who demonstrate promise in the visual arts. Every artist faces a blank page, canvas, or space with open possibilities. Starting from zero, ideas take shape, momentum builds, creativity gathers speed, and a new work of art is created. Once the basic elements of line, composition, form, and color are practiced and studied, artists search for motivation that will sustain their artistic pursuits. This exhibition features the many personal reasons that accelerate the desire to create. After a D.C. debut, VSA arts is presenting the “Accelerate” artwork in a two-year, nation-wide touring exhibition.
Admission and parking is FREE!

National Ranching Heritage Center Sponsors Summer Youth Classes
July 12-16 2010
The 11th annual Summer Youth Classes will be held July 12 to 16 at the National Ranching Heritage Center (NRHC) on the Texas Tech campus, 3121 Fourth Street, Lubbock. Classes are designed for elementary students in Kindergarten through 5th grades.
Courses, each lasting 1 hour and 50 minutes, are scheduled in two blocks of time. The first is 8:30 to 10:20 a.m., and the second goes from 10:40 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Students may sign up for one or two classes at a cost of $25 per course. Those who take two classes will be able to stay the whole morning and will have a snack in between their two classes. Camp T-shirts are available for $12 in advance or $14 after classes start.
“The summer program provides a fun, learning environment for young students in age-appropriate classes set among the Center’s historic structures,” said Emily Arellano, education director at the NRHC.
“Because many students learn by doing, hands-on activities are planned for each day of the program. This is an excellent opportunity for children to see what life was like for the early settlers and ranchers of this area while also having fun.”
Class space is limited and pre-registration is required. “Classes will fill up, so register early,” Arellano said.
More information and registration are available on the NRHC Web site at www.nrhc.ttu.edu. To contact Arellano, call (806) 742-0498 or e-mail her at emily.arellano@ttu.edu.
